Best Part Of Beach In Hua Hin Area?

[ruddy2000]

Never been to Hua Hin first time will be next wek so was just wondering what are everyone's recommendations?

Best beach close to town is Suan Son on the other side of the Buddha mountain about 8km south of HH. 15 mins on wheels.

^ Yes, as Johnny said, Suan Song is good if you want a deserted beach. Just south of Takiab mountain and the small port where the fishing boats come in to port (in Takiab, closer than Suan Song) is a better beach than Hua Hin that also has services like chairs to sit on, umbrellas, and restaurants.

For really good beaches, the further south you go the better but you'll need a car.

Cha Am beach between Regent Holiday Inn and Springfield at Sea is very nice , clean and not to crowded.

in town, the best area is opposite Market Village (the big shopping centre)

Hi ,

As JohhnyK says the best beach (in my opinion) is about 10mins south of the centre of HH. It is also known as 'Pine Beach' because of the numerous pine trees that grow very close to the sandy beach and offer lovely shade for picnics. If you are willing to 'walk' about 400 metres from either end of the beach you will normally find nobody else with you - laziness on the part of all concerned. To reach this beach just travel south from HH and after crossing the flyover look out for the second petrol station on the left with quite an imposing entrance drive. You will see a check point, manned by the Military after about 150 yards upon entering and they will charge you about 10 or 20 bahts entrance fee - unless you say 'Golfing?' as there is a driving range and golf course in the complex.

There are many good restaurants at either end of the 7 km beach; one run by the military (at Pine Beach complex) and the others as an independents art either ends. There is a nice, good class 'Military R&R Hotel' ( don't know the name) situated at PB that has quite a decent restaurant and you can also stay there - not just for the Military. The staff here have always been most attentive, as they have very few customers and like to practice their language skills.

Be aware of 'Jelly fish' in the sea - they seem to come in closer after any rain fall (in all areas), but normally not a problem. Always wise to carry some vinegar with you for treatment of any stings, wherever and whenever you go sea bathing.

Hope that this is of some help. Enjoy your visit to Hua-Hin.

Today we was hanging around for to find a nice beach... not so easy...

First we went at the Military Camp after the flyover on the way to go Pranbury, a few kilometrs from Kao Ta Kiab.

Unfortunately tje low tide make a kind of channel and the sea was not so nice... also not so much shadow form the few pines...

We moved back going on Kao Ta Kiab, next to the fisherman port, but also there we don't liked so much (also being there lot of time in the past being well serviced).

We tryed from Supatra, but was too close to the pier and lot of boats stayng there.

At the end we moved back in town going at Centara Hotel.

We get lunch there. Good restaurant and good service, priced as hotel.

The beach was very nice and clean, with a few rocks but also a lot of sand. No channels, and 1,5 meter water at 100mt from the shore. Pretty good.

It is possible to arrive there also walking from the main beach in front at Hilton (just to locate the place, going in the direction of Kao Ta Kiab).

Today we went at Sheraton Resort,

someone told us is it possible to use the swimming pools also not stayng in the hotel.

With an admission fee of 150thb pp is it possible to enter the pool complex and use all the facilities like chairs and sun ombrellas, gardens, steam room, toilets, showers etc etc, including towels.

The pool is not deep but huge, surrounding all the hotel with a nice combination of pools, channels, jacuzzies and kids pool.

Chairs and ombrellas are everywhere in the garden.

Restaurant on the beach looks us not so good, just expensive... my kao pad kai taste like water... next time we will try the one in the middle of the pool, looks better...

Howevere a very nice place to stay, with plenty of space, and at that price is affordable. The sea in front is nothing special.

What do you expect in a luxury hotel catering to well-off falang?

Cannot imagine how difficult have to be for them to training staff in proper way... if getting problems into made a kao pad...
