Everything on this page comes from Google and the venue itself, which is exactly what every other listing site has. There is no verdict from me because I have not been through the door — and I would rather say so than write something that sounds like I have. It goes on the list.

Khao Laem Ya–Mu Ko Samet National Park is a day-trip destination in Phe, within the greater Pattaya area of Chon Buri, Thailand. It's rated 4.5★ on Google. Open daily, 8:00 AM–6:00 PM.

A coastal national park on the Rayong mainland, directly across the water from Koh Samet, where a 1km shoreline trail links a wooden boardwalk, a white lighthouse and a run of rocky viewpoints. The walking is gentle enough for most ages, with pagodas to sit at, a short hill climb for panoramic views and a glass walkway over the sea. Clean and well kept, with sea-front camping areas below the entrance, and reviewers rate it one of the better sunset spots on this coast. Monkeys roam freely throughout.
