About 40 km south of Pattaya, in the Sattahip archipelago, lies Ko Samae San, a quiet island under the care of the Royal Thai Navy. Known as Princess Island, it offers powder-soft white sand, clear water and a far calmer atmosphere than the busy islands near the city.
Alcohol is not sold on the island and the military keeps the beaches spotless. With some luck you may spot sea turtles or a family of wild-looking but surprisingly tame boars. On the way back, the day rounds off with a wishing temple and an open-air museum of vintage military vehicles.
Transfer included: we pick you up at your hotel. We'll confirm the pickup time after you book.
