Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

The greatest attraction here is the tranquility. A small island lies only about 100 meters off the coast, and the waves lap at it from both sides, meeting in the middle where they break over a sandbar. Many wade out to watch this natural spectacle. The water itself is often as smooth as a lake, and the seabed consists mostly of fine sand with occasional rocks that should be watched out for. This makes this beach one of the most suitable on Koh Samui for families with young children.

It's a wide, open stretch of beach, not a sheltered cove. So, if you're looking for the seclusion of a place like Silver Beach, this isn't the place for you. Bars and restaurants line the far end of the beach, and sun loungers and beanbag chairs are available for a small fee. The downside: crowds. On a busy day at midday, it can feel like a wall of umbrellas and legs, making it impossible to find a decent spot, let alone a place to take photos. The solution is sunrise: calm sand, good light, and the waves are clearly visible.
