Please share your very secret, private, small, romantic beaches/creeks/coves

Hello,

Do you know some tiny creeks/inlets, where almost nobody comes?

If possible between near bangrak/bophut/choengmon/chaweng/lamai

Thanks!

If is secret and private, why share?

  • Popular Post

I have spent some time and effort trying to find "quiet" places. They do exist.

It may sound selfish but I can't think of any good reason why I would destroy my efforts

by publishing their whereabouts! Sorry.

Ok, we can trade some...! PM me :-)

Mine hasn't turned up. sad.png

It really can depend on time of year or even day of week which beaches are the best for having the beach to yourself (or a good section of one) ..... but they are around .... some in South west Samui are nice, but low tides in summer months makes them less attractive ....

Some times you just need to follow your noise along trails through coconut groves.... Occasionally you may see the odd fisherman, sometimes later in the day the locals will go relax.... and burp.gif.pagespeed.ce.RBpw6FUyRR.gifI just wish they would take the bottles with them ...facepalm.gif

There are pics of most beaches around the island in the Photo section for the islands.... you need to look through.... even some that I may not remember how to find again! w00t.gif

I can trade too :-) There is one in the close area of Plai Laem. :) PM

Ban Por and BanThai have a few hidden spots.

Easy to find if you take the effort.

There is a kind of "secret" beach with no buildings a bit south of thongsai bay / north of choeng mon. But this may not be for long, since I've seen they're building some kind of road to this beach.

Also, a quiet deserted stretch of beach east of bang po.

The other side of matlang island north of chaweng lagune is also nice.

Also, there's another really deserted beach north of phang ka / south of taling ngam. This one, be prepared to walk a couple of km from the nearest road.

go on google maps sattalite go around the island see where they are if you have sat nav put inco-ordinates or just remember where it was, that's how i find places.

Another not-so-secret, but reachable only by 30' jungle trail or by boat is the Southernmost part of Koh Phangan, the tip of Haad Rin peninsula, after the lighthouse.; Cristal clear water, wild animals and nobody, just a few boats rounding the cape.

Yes, agree, but it can be a bit of an effort (walk) to find!!! also there parts of Maenam beach that are quite secluded ..... Both Maenam and Ban Por beaches, are several kilometers long, so depends on starting point! (Ban Tai, I think is part of Ban Por beach and can be reached in several access points).

Sadly the best secluded part of Ban Tai has had a lot of sand washed away lately ....sad.png

I reckon in a couple of weeks or so, there will not be as many tourists around, that will help make them a bit more secluded too! wink.png

Also Khman asked about creeks etc... lots of nice walking areas to find those too.... for example: Off Soi One Maenam to Lamai, find the water fall up there! Also off Soi 5 Maenam, the Secret water falls is a nice hike! thumbsup.gif Many more around too... but one needs to get off the main roads to find them! facepalm.gif

This is not in Samui, but in Phangan, is not so 'secret', but arrive there by car is harder than a Camel Trophy and 20 Km off road.

By boat much more easy. But almost always is desert.

Koh Phangan - With the car at Haad Yao East

You managed to drive to Haad Yao East? Wow, I am impressed. This must be the only 'deserted' beach I know of on KPN.

What the latest on Ao Thong Reng and the Than Sadet 'Airport'?

Do you know how to keep a secret? So do I!

Who believes that anything is secret in 2013 with Internet all around ?! Ridiculous...

And not the US government for sure...

I know where Pattaya 3 is, but it's bloody crowded most weekends, in the middle of Sakon Nakorn,

No jungle places I do know of, but no where near the area you want.

Hi!

Not at all. Just looking for a romantic beach with no shop, and most of the time nobody to go with my girlfriend...

But I understand those who prefer to keep their secrets...

It depends when you go.... there was a period about a month ago when Ban Por was like the image you posted.wink.png

This was Ban Por a week or so ago
