Ao Cho
อ่าวช่อ
A small bay with clear water on the north side of Ao Thian, with its own small pier from which you can set off for island-hopping snorkeling.
Ao Cho lies between Ao Nuan and Ao Thian. It has fine, soft sand and clearer water than the northern beaches, making it one of the better snorkeling bays on the east coast of Koh Samet. Small fish swarm beneath the rocks near the shore. The bay has a small pier where some speedboats and snorkeling tours board and disembark. Crowds are moderate, so it suits visitors staying in Ao Thian who want a quieter beach within walking distance.
