What are you looking at?
We set the camera up near Na Dan Pier, facing out across the water to the mainland. That angle gets you both sides of the crossing in one shot.
You can see the sea around Koh Samet, the sky over the island itself, and anything rolling in from the coast before it arrives.
It’s most useful on changeable days, when you’re trying to decide whether to head to the beach, book a boat trip, or wait it out.

Check the sky and visibility over the island directly, rather than trusting a forecast on its own.
Spot weather coming in
The camera faces the mainland, so you’ll often see rain approaching across the water before it reaches the island.
Checking the weather before your boat trip?
The weather here isn’t just a beach-day question. Conditions at sea affect the crossing between the island and the mainland too.
Rough weather can delay or cancel departures, especially the open speedboats. If you’re crossing between Koh Samet and Ban Phe, check the live view as well as the forecast before you commit.
