Eating & Drinking
Most hotels and guesthouses have restaurants that moonlight as bars after sunset. The
food and the service won't blow you away, but there aren't many alternatives.
On weekends Ko Samet is a boisterous night owl with provincial tour groups crooning
away on karaoke machines or the young ones slurping down beer and buckets to a techno
beat. The bar scene changes depending on who is around but there is usually a crowd on
Hat Sai Khao, Ao Hin Khok, Ao Phai and Ao Wong Deuan.
Rabeang Baan
THAI
$
(Na Dan; dishes 70-120B; 8am-10pm)
Right by the ferry terminal, this spot has good enough
food to make you forget you have to leave the island. It's busier at lunch than dinner.
Jep's Restaurant
INTERNATIONAL
$
(Ao Hin Khok; mains 60-150B; 7am-11pm)
Canopied by the branches of an arching tree dec-
orated with pendant lights, this pretty place does a little of everything right on the beach.
Baywatch Bar
(Ao Wong Deuan; beers from 80B)
A good spot for after-dark beach-gazing, with a fun crowd
and strong cocktails.
BAR
Naga Bar
(Ao Hin Khok; beers from 70B)
This busy beachfront bar comes with a
moo·ay tai
ring, al-
though the days of drunk foreigners getting battered by the locals are long gone. Instead,
you get DJs and lots of whisky and vodka/Red Bull buckets.
