Samet Nangshe Viewpoint

I am writing this review for everyone who has never been here before and for those who might otherwise make the same mistake we did on our first attempt. There are two main ways to reach the viewpoint overlooking the bay, especially if you go early in the morning as we did. First of all, be aware that even very early in the morning this place is already extremely crowded. We arrived at around 5:30 am and found more people than at many popular attractions during daytime. Honestly, I cannot imagine how packed it must be later in the day. One option is the large, highly commercial parking area, where you can also watch the sunrise. I personally do not recommend this option, as ticket prices there are extremely high. The second option, which is what we chose and would recommend, is to continue a bit further past the main parking area along a dirt road. A short distance ahead, you will find a smaller dirt parking area where you can buy tickets for 100 baht per person. From there, you are taken to the top of the mountain by a 4x4 or off-road vehicle. The road is steep, dusty, and rough, so be careful as it is easy to get dirt. Once at the top, the view is absolutely stunning and more than worth the price paid. Despite the crowds, the scenery makes the effort worthwhile if you choose the right way to get there.

Sky walk glass bridge, restaurant, resort, camp style huts and many more. You can choose 700 baht offer for skywalk and a buffet in the restaurant on the top. We had choices of rice with Thai chicken curry, salads, boiled eggs, spaghetti carbonara, soup, khanom chin with curries etc. Or You can choose the offer of sky walk and have Al-a-carte. You cn choose pizza or other cuisine at restaurant. The view is beautiful from the skywalk. You can observe the mangrove trees, mountains and river meeting with sea water.

Worth Visiting!!! ♥️♥️ The Google Map will take you to another private place which has a glass bridge and charges 700-800 ThB per person. The starting point of this place is a bit ahead of the private property. You can hike upto the view point which is quite strenuous for normal people. Alternatively they have 4x4 Car which can be hired @ 100 ThB per person. Must Visit place while traveling from Phuket to Krabi or vice versa.

I highly recommend it if you're passing through. This is a cheaper and higher-end viewpoint than the Skywalk (which is 800THB for litteraly nothing). Price: 100THB (Round trip with 4x4), you can hike until the view point for free (about 30min) but it's not recommended it's very steep and rugged. There is a car park for free parking of cars and scooters.

Instagram place. Very steep ride to come here by van. 100 baht round trip. Must visit if you come to phuket or Krabi. You can drive car and come to ticket counter and enough car parking space, truck drivers will take you up safely.

The view makes the rough road, dusty 4X4 drive up the hill worth it. We rode all the way from Patong at 5am , although we couldn’t catch the sunrise, it was totally worth the visit. We were actually glad we dint ride there at dark as the road is undone ,about 2km , is undone yet. Carry a face mask, water bottle and wet napkin (washroom is not very tidy) with you

If you ever wanted to pay 700 Baht to feel like the king of Instagram—this is the place! The view is absolutely stunning, worth every photo and selfie. The 200 Baht food & drink voucher is a nice touch, though it won’t get you far if you’re thirsty and hungry. Still, you can sip your overpriced iced coffee while pretending you own the entire bay. Bring your camera, a hat, and some patience for the slow service in the restaurant.

We’ve been to all the viewpoints on this side, and Samet Nangshe offers by far the most breathtaking view. We drove up a pretty steep road, and once at the top, the panorama of Phang Nga Bay with its karsts was absolutely stunning. There’s café to enjoy a coffee while taking in the scenery. Truly a view worth visiting
