Ao Lung Dam Beach is a small beach at the southern part of the island, just next to Ao Sangthian Beach. Apart from beautifully clear seawater, this beach also presents a wooden pier, which is seen as the highlight of the beach. Many postcards of Koh Samed is taken photo with this pier. Thai visitors also think that this beach is the place to be - when visiting Koh Samed, don't forget to visit Ao Lung Dam Beach.
The location of Ao Lung Dam Beach is about 4.5 kilometers far from Nadan Pier, where Sunset Viewpoint is also located near the beach - visitors can walk from the beach to this viewpoint within 5 minutes.
Although this beach is located quite far from popular beach on the island, Tourists still come to visit occasionally. Ao Lung Dam presents 120 meter long beach, attractive seawater with smoothly waves and gentle sea breeze. To go swimming is safe, because there is a non-boat zone for visitors to enjoy with any worries.
The facility here is not much. There is a few restaurants to support visitors, but there is a famous restaurant, Apache Restaurant, located here. This restaurant, said by Thai visitors, offers good-taste with acceptable price. Note that, the restaurant is located on the pier, but, in January 2016, it is relocated onto the area next to the pier.
From Ao Lung Dam Beach, to go to other beaches is quite difficult because there is no Songthaew available here. The only one beach that visitors can easily walk to is Ao Sangthian Beach. For this reason, to rent a motorbike, for those who stay here, would be a good choice.
