“Signature wooden pier, great photo spot, fishing area, peaceful atmosphere, and sunrise viewpoint by the sea”

Ao Lung Dam (Ao Lung Dam) is located next to Ao Sang Thian (within walking distance). It is a small beach that still preserves the traditional lifestyle of local fishermen and the coastal community of Koh Samet. The beach is named after “Lung Dam,” the pioneer who developed accommodation and restaurants in this area, gradually turning it into a simple and welcoming seaside retreat.

The beach has a short curved shoreline with calm and clear water. At high tide, it is ideal for photographing the wooden pier due to beautiful water reflections, while at low tide, sandbanks and natural rock formations become more visible, creating a different scenery throughout the day. In the morning, soft sunlight reflects on the water, producing a beautiful blue tone perfect for photography lovers.

Overall, the atmosphere is quiet during the daytime and becomes more relaxing in the evening with cool sea breezes. It is perfect for sitting by the sea, fishing, or squid fishing around the Lung Dam wooden pier, a popular spot known for its rich marine life.

The surrounding area remains lush and shaded by large trees, and most restaurants and accommodations are simple wooden-style buildings that blend naturally with the environment. Visitors can enjoy fresh seafood by the sea, listen to gentle waves, and experience an unhurried island lifestyle.

Ao Lung Dam is suitable for couples, small families, slow-life travelers, and fishing enthusiasts who seek peace and a more natural side of Koh Samet. It also connects conveniently to nearby beaches such as Ao Sang Thian and Ao Wong Duean.

During the high season, especially in winter, the atmosphere becomes even more romantic and peaceful, making it an ideal short getaway to recharge in nature.
