A description of all the beaches in Hua Hin

The regulars of Thai resorts who prefer not to go far from Bangkok (by the way, do you know how to get from Bangkok to Hua Hin? ) prefer clean and spacious beaches Hua Hua Hin. Indeed, in Pattaya to find the same beautiful places is much harder, it takes longer to get to them, and the prices for accommodation – higher (read more about Pattaya beaches). And in Hua Hin the coasts are dotted with clean sand and pebbles, the infrastructure for tourists here is at the highest level, sun beds, umbrellas, working bars with cool drinks and Thai alcohol, in general, everything you need for a first-class vacation.

The coast of Hua Hin is divided into three zones: northern, southern and central.The southern and northern zones are suitable for fans of quiet, perhaps family, vacation. The central beaches are noisier, but there is a lot more entertainment. With housing will also not be a problem, unless the prices in the southern and northern zones can scare away those who have no claims to the elitism of living conditions. And now, let’s get acquainted with the description of all the beaches of Hua Hin.

City beach central area

The central city beach area in Hua Hin begins south of the local landmark “Stone Head” and stretches for several kilometers. Nearby is the comfortable Hilton Hotel. The easiest way to get there is through the gate near the tourist police building, you can find it on Damnernkasen Rd.

The central beach of Hua Hin is the best place for those who are used to vacationing with buzz and glamour. Here is a central market, a huge number of bars and restaurants, shopping centers, travel agencies, massage parlors and houses of tolerance. However, you can find a girl for the evening in almost any institution (about special features of sex tourism in Thailand can be found in an interesting article on the link).

South city beach area

The conditional south zone begins at the foot of Mount Khao Takiab (Khao Takiab), which is crowned by a temple with an observation deck. South Beach in Hua Hin has a lot of differences from the beach described above. Right from the steps of some local hotels you can get into the water, and in general it is incredibly narrow. Not surprisingly, there are fewer people here, and in the off-season it is often empty. Is, a few residents of nearby hotels come out here to take a sunbath. Sun loungers and umbrellas are also hard to find.

South Hua Hin Beach will appeal to fans of calm and peaceful beach holidays. Buddhists, who regularly visit the temple on the mountain, often come here. And for shopping and noisy entertainment, you can go to the center of the city, from here go songteo (or tuk-tuk), the trip is only 10 baht.

North-zone-city-beach

The conditional northern zone starts north of the fishing pier and reaches almost to the airport. North beach in Hua Hin is not as crowded as the central beach, but it is quite spacious and clean.

The beach in Hua Hin is not as crowded as the central beach.

The local sights worth highlighting are Sirikit Park and Hui Hin’s Royal Palace. Local army soldiers march by the palace every night, and military ships are constantly on watch at sea. At night, the ships shine bright lights that complement the deserted landscape of the coast. It is because of the King’s guarded residence, Hua Hin is the safest resort in Thailand!

For those who like to contemplate nature and get away from the hustle and bustle of the crowded streets, a vacation at the northern beach will be appreciated. But it should be taken into account that in some places the accommodation is even more expensive than the central one. However, nothing prevents you from settling further away in a guest house and coming here to rest on rented scooters or a hitchhiking sunteo to the airport. There are no facilities like umbrellas and sun loungers on the beach, but the peace and quiet make up for this discomfort.

Khao Takiab Beach

The two-kilometer-long Khao Beach Takiab in Hua Hin is located near the mountain of the same name. However, you can’t get here by the coast, only by highway. Right there you can rent a deck chair for a token amount, and if you’re lucky, for ridiculous money the locals will offer a ride on a horse or a water bike. The beach is cleaned every weekend, so it’s always clean.

Only a few small cafes on the beach are among the infrastructural pleasures. The place doesn’t provide nightlife, you have to go to the center for that. From here it’s only a 10 baht ride to the center by sungteo.

Suan Son Beach (Military Beach)

Suan Son Beach Suan Son Beach in Hua Hin is considered an extension of Khao Takiab, with a better coastal walk from there. To enter the beach from the highway patrol soldiers will ask to pay 10 baht. This is probably one of the most picturesque beaches in Hua Hin, it has a lot of vegetation creating shade, so umbrellas are rarely useful here.

There is no infrastructure on Suan Son. And the beach is mostly frequented by locals who are used to being away from tourists in semi-wild places.

At the entrance of the beach you can find a whale skeleton for all to see. A few meters away, there are small stalls with the usual beach merchandise at low prices, since it’s mostly locals who vacation there. There is also a small food court, where everything is also cheap. Closer to the beach there is already a cafe with access to the coast.

Peach Cha Am

Peach Cha Am in Hua Hin is located near the resort area of the same name, 25 km north of Hua Hin. Lodging in this area is cheap (renting accommodation in Thailand), but you have to pay for the cheapness by the nearby highway. On weekdays this is the quietest beach of all those described, because on weekends many Thais from Bangkok come here.

Sai Noi Beach

Thai Sai Noi Beach in Hua Hin is located in the southern area, half an hour by public transport from the city center. The beach is considered as one of the best, at least by the reviews of tourists. You should not look for any special infrastructural delights on the beach, there are practically no hotels, as well as stores and boxmen.

There are not many people here, most often in the shade of a few vegetation are families with children (by the way, do you know how to get ready for a recreation in Thailand with children?), lovers and singles, who prefer a quiet and peaceful holiday. Family holidays are favored by the comfortable depth of the sea, it goes gently into the depths and there are several places where the little ones can swim.

Tao Beach

The crowded and fairly wide Tao Beach in Hua Hin is an extension of Suan Son and begins at the foot of Mount Tao. The highlight of the beach – the shallow water, you can not snorkel, but the children and those who have not learned to swim, it should be nice. For a change, it’s worth climbing up Mount Tao and admiring the surroundings from the observation deck of the infamous Turtle Temple.

Those who mostly come here enjoy strolling along the coast and contemplating the calm sea surface with the ships standing in the bay. Umbrellas and sun loungers are not offered here, food is also better to take with you, there are no catering or stores around the perimeter, although you can occasionally meet a few vendors.
