Located only 220 kilometers from Bangkok, Rayong and Koh Samet can be accessed within approximately three hours by different means of transport to suit your convenience. Driving is easy and the road is well-indicated. Even though cars are not allowed on to Koh Samet, there are parking service on the mainland at “Ao Prao Pier” where you can leave your car and ferry/speed boat to the island.
