The cost varies depending upon the beaches that your would like to go since the distance counts as well as your negotiating skill. If you are more adventurous type, you can rent a motorcycle and ride around the island. Samed Island has only one road going from north to south with tracks running from it. Proper concrete road track runs only from Noi-Nha Beach to Saikaew Beach. The rest of the road track is unpaved and red dirt road, especially to the south of the island so travelers should have the strong motocycle riding skill in order to ride to the south of the island.
