Hat Bang Po is a quiet beach on Koh Samui, known for clean, fine sand and warm, calm blue water. On a clear day, look across the sea towards Koh Phangan. Some sections are narrow, and the sand slopes steeply in places, but the peaceful setting makes this a good stop if you want time away from busier beaches. For swimming, take care around rocks near the water’s edge and continue past them to find better conditions.
