Beaches near Bangkok

[Unregistered]

I am travelling to Bangkok in a few days and want to go to one of the beautiful beaches - you know the ones that you see pictures of when you see beaches in Thailand, like Koh Pee Pee or Phi Phi Leh. I live in Sydney, so I am used to nices beaches, but I want to see that beautiful clear water and greenery, like in the movie The Beach. Does anyone know of any like that that are a day trip from Bangkok? I would really appreciate any fast replies. Thanks!!

I was at Cha-um beach, there is very poor beach and very dirty ,.no private .
Then if you want to see beautiful beach so u have to go to Phuket or Chang island.. there is so wonderful and nice resort.

Koh Pee Pee is very beautiful beach and its in Bangkok main attraction places list. You can also enjoy some others beaches of Bangkok like ,KOH SAMET, BANG SAEN, HUA HIN and PATTAYA. PATTAYA is one of most favorite beach of mine.
