Ban Samet Hill Map

Address:

Nadan is the Main Pier in Koh Samet, and it is about 2 minutes to walk to Ban Samet Hill.

The easiest way to get to Ko Samet is by bus and boat combination –a pre-arranged package can be bought from most travel agents which will include the bus and boat together for about 260 Baht one-way, 370 Baht for a small, uncomfortable minibus; or 290 one way, 470 Baht return for a much better VIP coach. These buses take you to Ban Phe in the Rayong province, from where you catch a boat over to the island, but you can make your own way to Ban Phe if you prefer, by catching a public bus from Bangkok’s eastern bus terminal. For the small saving this makes it’s not really worth the extra hassle. The total journey time is about 3.5 hours.

You can also drive from Bangkok – simply keep heading down Sukhumvit Road out of Bangkok and follow signs to Chon Buri, Rayong and then Ban Phe. In Ban Phe there are plenty of places to leave your car, for a small charge of about 50 Baht per night.
