Prao Beach

On April 16th, I had the chance to visit Ao Phrao with my family. We traveled there by motorcycle. Although the sunlight around 10 a.m. was quite intense, the cool breeze made everything feel more refreshing. The atmosphere at Ao Phrao was peaceful and serene. The sea water was clear, allowing us to see the sandy bottom. The blue of the ocean contrasted beautifully with the green of the surrounding trees. We took a stroll along the beach for a while. This bay is perfect for relaxing or swimming in the sea. We also had time to capture some lovely shots of the sea and sky, which looked bright and vivid at that time of day. If you're planning to visit in the late morning or during the day, it’s best to bring a hat and sunscreen, as the sun can be quite strong. But if you prefer a more pleasant and cooler atmosphere, early morning or late afternoon would be more suitable. Since there aren't many shops around Ao Phrao, it's a good idea to bring your own drinking water or snacks.

Very nice beach on the west side of Koh Samed where you can enjoy a nice sunset. Shame the high tide brings many plastic debris on the shore. As this is a natural park island I think they could keep it beeter. Maybe they could use part of the entrance fees (200 thb per tourist) to do some more regular beaches cleaning up. There's also some wild life around. A monitor lizard passed by whilst we were enjoying our time on the beach

Went there for the sunset. Nice beach with many people but not too crowded. Clear sea and white sand but be careful when walking in the sea as there are many rocks and I got cut on my toes. But overall, it was great!

Excellent beach❤️ good for snorkeling, nice resort,good restaurant and not too busy❤️

This beach is a fairly quiet beach and not crowded by tourists. There is a few big resorts here in the upper price range. The water here is beautiful and clear and great for snorkeling and swimming and you can rent snorkels here. It is abit away from the major tourist area so maybe hire a motorbike to get here like we did. Beautiful area overall.

The perfect beache to enjoy a beautiful sunset. The water was crystal clear and the beach clean. Less crowded than a few others I was at. Also, walk on the ramp to go a bit further into the sea for a better experience as well.

Spent the day here, beach lovey and clean and water cycstal clear. All the sunbeds on the beach belong to hotels, so take a towel. We spent the day at the mid point restaurant, and they did not complain. If you are looking for somewhere quiet and romantic, this beach is ideal.

Beautiful and well maintained beach.... Peaceful and not crowded 😌 (May). The beach has a couple of resteraunts on the walking street which have some sofas on the beach, and the music played there is normally chill and relaxing. Loved this beach better than the others more crowded beaches.
