Ao Thian

Ao Thian and Ao Lung Dum are two picturesque beaches nestled in the southern part of a bay. The bay, which lies south of the well-known Ao Wong Deuan Bay, is a scenic location on an island, renowned for its tranquil and serene atmosphere. It is characterized by its white sandy beaches, clear sea, and beautiful blue sky. Ao Thian, the northern beach of the bay, is larger and offers pleasant swimming opportunities. The beach is known for its quietness and calmness, making it an ideal spot for relaxation. Despite its beauty, Ao Thian is less crowded compared to other beaches, adding to its charm and making it a hidden gem on the island. However, there may be small rocks on the beach that need to be avoided. Near Ao Thian is a picturesque mini beach, which is well-suited for couples or small families. The bay's center is rocky, with a pleasant road adorned with small prayer houses, beautiful trees, and bonsai. Various accommodations are available in this rocky section between the two beaches. These resorts offer the unique experience of falling asleep to the sound of waves and waking up to the view of the ocean right outside the balcony. Ao Lung Dum, the southern beach of the bay, is not very long but it is also not overcrowded. It has a small pier, making it accessible by boat. Visitors can unwind on the beach and take pleasure in the peaceful surroundings. From here, one can also enjoy a nice view over the island of Koh Samet. Reaching these beaches involves walking through a forest from the Ao Wong Deuan Beach, which offers a complete view of the bay. The bay also features several super swings for visitors to enjoy.
