Spaniel Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 You might look into Kho Samet. Just don't go on the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyDrinker Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I'm not saying, as it's taken me 20+ years here to find a beach which is truly quiet....just to quantify that, I mean with no scooters ripping up and down or gangs of jabbering weekenders down from Bangkok and their <deleted> buses blasting Carabao from dawn till Dusk, no packs of howling dogs, no endless stream of people trying to sell me dog on a stick or massages...... Cha-am isn't what I'd call quiet, especially at weekends.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM me please HD. Kho Samet? Is that a joke?? You may as well have said Phuket because at least it's big enough to have some relatively quiet beaches. I guess you could try Kho Phyam, the other Kho Chang, Kho Jum... My other suggestion would be Lonely Planet as their members visit places that aren't Samet, Phuket, Chang and Samui.

Spaniel Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I must admit I haven't been to Samet for years but I think during the week it's still pretty laid back/quiet. Angsta, maybe you have been there more recently and things have changed. Give us a report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opalred Posted March 21, 2014 Author Share Posted March 21, 2014 whats the area like around kheo lak i was here when tsunami hit and it was badly hit have been to all islands not my liking when was younger ok for the bars want to do my fishing in ocean now cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angsta Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Samet is the closest island to Bangkok and is therefore quite the opposite of what the OP requires. I guess you need to go to a few other places in order to compare Samet quiet to quiet. Many, many options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullie Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 All resorts along the coast on the stretch from Trat to Hat Lek are very quiet. Koh Kood is still a gem, most of the time. As is the east coast of Koh Chang. Koh Mak has several resorts with VIP bungalows directly on the beach - very relaxing. Good fishing there, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitchag Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 There is a small island resort on Koh Wai, not far from Ko Chang no cars, buses or bikes just sea and sand and nice comfortable cabins can get there by speed boat ferry from the mainland, this is going to be my regular chill out place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucidLucifer Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 It's a long way if you're in the north, but there are loads of nice, quiet beaches down in Trang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timber Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Chumphon to Surat Thani you can have the whole beach to yourself expect for a few on weekends. Some nice beaches. Depends on what you need to go with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
