Sitting on the west coast of the Gulf of Thailand, Hua Hin is a beach paradise home to all varieties of resorts, activities and interesting cultural adventures. Located just 170km, or a 3-hour drive south-west, from Bangkok, this beach-side town grew its popularity initially from being a frequented spot by Thailand’s Royal Family. Today it combines the attractions of a modern Thailand holiday destination with the charm and quaintness of a still active fishing port.
Hua Hin offers a diverse culinary scene, ranging from fresh seafood caught daily to authentic Thai street food and international cuisine. Explore the vibrant night markets for unique souvenirs and local delicacies, or indulge in a relaxing Thai massage at one of the many spas. For those seeking adventure, kiteboarding and water sports are readily available, while nearby national parks like Khao Sam Roi Yot offer stunning landscapes and hiking trails.
