Sweeping and well protected Ao Wong Duen is one of the most popular beaches to stay and play at on Ko Samet.

Home to some quality mid-range accommodation, the beach is easy to reach thanks to the stream of ferries, speedboats, jet skis and banana boats plying their trade, so an isolated and quiet beach this is not.
That said, backpackers tend to stay elsewhere and cocktails rather than buckets of vodka are the order of the day as the beach moves more upmarket.

If you choose to stay on Ao Wong Duen you may find yourself spending much of your time on other beaches to dodge the noise and hustle and bustle, while returning to Ao Wong Duen for its fine selection of eateries and drinking holes in the evening.


 
















The beach is also a traveller service centre for the adjacent beaches, offering internet (2B/min) and money exchange services.

Ferry boats arrive several times daily and leave to Ban Phe at 08:30, 12:00 and 16:00 for 70B. There is a 10B per person fee for the tender service to/from the shore.
