The mainland beaches in Rayong province have great appeal for Thai families and couples seeking a weekend retreat from the pressures of city life. There are a number of beaches, including some designated as national park land, which are quiet but still have a lot of facilities available for visitors. The best getaway, enjoyed and acclaimed by Thais and foreigners alike, is Ko Samet island which is famous for its gorgeous beaches and relaxed atmosphere.
