Why is it named Koh Sam Seb (30 islands)?
Some may think that there are 30 islands that makes up the name of Koh Sam Seb. However, that is not true. This beautiful site consists of hundreds of islands and is covered by an ocean of forests; yet, among all these islands, only 30 of them have incomparable white sand. That is why it is named Koh Sam Seb or Island 30. So, let’s not get it wrong anymore!
