The real place

Koh Samet is an island in the Gulf of Thailand, a few hours from Bangkok. Hat Sai Kaew, “diamond sand beach”, is its liveliest beach, known for the Rak Tae monument of the mermaid and the child, from the Thai epic Phra Aphai Mani.

Sound

The waves on the shore set the tone, with the life of the beach around them.

What happens in the scene

Swimmers fill the sea during the day; the beach gets busier in the morning and late afternoon.
Boats bring visitors, who step down and walk up the sand.
Beach bars light their tables and cushions in the evening.
After dark, a fire performer spins flaming poi on the sand, except in strong rain or wind.
