    Popularised as a resort in the early-1920s by King Prajadhipok, Hua Hin is closely associated with the Thai royal family and is a quiet and relaxing seaside resort ideal for family vacations, a reasonable 2.5 hours drive down from [wiki=3d147c6ba113929f5a004a5e9dcc832e]Bangkok[/wiki]. Until 1934, it was known as Samore Riang (สมอเรียง), or "rows of rocks".

    The tranquil fishing village was turned into a royal resort and consequently became popular among Siam's nobility and upper classes. In 1928, Prajadhipok built his Klai Kangwon (Far From Worries) Palace. As of 2007, Klai Kangwon is a full-time residence of the current king and is not open for visitors, although the outer palace grounds are open for walkers and joggers 16:00-19:00 daily (wear shoes, have sleeved shirts that cover at least your upper arms and bring your passport).

    The 5 km long beach itself is pretty, more so than [wiki=0fd360636058b928fc4d4e875290241c]Pattaya[/wiki]'s, and the sea is relatively clean. However, most of the beach can completely disappear along certain parts of the coast during high tide. Besides just sunbathing, snorkelling and swimming, visitors can also enjoy golf, spas, caves, peaks, waterfalls, shops, seafood and nearby national parks. The town is clean, warm and laid-back, making it ideal for families and couples.
    • Climate

      Hua Hin has a tropical climate with high humidity and occasional rain. It is typically pleasant however, and can be enjoyed all year round. Generally, the best time of the year to visit Hua Hin is in the cool season from November to February, but for those who like it hot, then the hot season is from March to May (temperature gets up into the higher 30s). The rainy season (although it doesn't rain every day) is from June to October with September being the rainiest of all. For those who don't appreciate rain, be advised that the rain in Thailand usually comes in short sharp bursts. It doesn't usually drizzle for long periods of time.

    • By train

      Trains are an easy way to get to Hua Hin, as the train station is right in the centre of Hua Hin. The train station is worth a look itself because it is a very traditional Thailand design. The trains go very slowly getting away from Bangkok, so the 2 1/2 hour road time to Hua Hin stretches to 4 or 5 on the train. If, however, road traffic is bad, this can stretch a car or bus journey!. The price of the train is around 250 baht(and only 44 baht for ordinary trains). Most trains on the southern route stop at Hua Hin. They leave Bangkok’s Hua Lamphong and Bang Sue railway stations 10 times daily between 08:05 and 22:50. Returning from Hua Hin to Bangkok, only two trains in the afternoon are bookable. Either an air-con option for +400 bath, or third class (the latter can only be bought one hour before the departure). See the State Railway of Thailand [http://www.railway.co.th/home/Default.asp?lenguage=Eng] for more information on time tables and fares.

    • By bus

      There are non-stop VIP coach direct from Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport to Hua Hin and Vice versa only 305 Baht (294 Baht Aug 2015) per seat, taking approximately 3.5hrs in moderately heavy Bangkok traffic. The coaches are comfortable with wide seats in a 2-1 configuration, and comes with an en-suite washroom. Departure time from Bangkok Suvannabhum Airport: 07:30, 09:30, 11:30, 13:30, 15:30, 17:30 and 19:30. For more information, see www.airporthuahinbus.com (updated on April 2015)

      From Bangkok, buses to Hua Hin leave from the [wiki=3d147c6ba113929f5a004a5e9dcc832e#Southern_Bus_Terminal]Sai Tai Mai[/wiki] terminal about every 20 minutes and take around 3.5 hours. The price is 175 baht (11/2012). Buses run from 04:00 - 22:20. For more information, contact Hua Hin-Pran Buri Tour, Tel: 0 2884 6191-2; Bang Saphan Tour, Tel: 0 2435 5105, 0 2884 8895; Bus Southern Terminal, Tel: 0 2435 1199, 0 2435 5605, 0 2434 7192 [http://www.transport.co.th]. When you buy the ticket it says which gate you have to go to - make sure you get to the correct one as smaller numbers (etc 1 to 10) exist on both sides of the building. Doublecheck from the customer service desk on ground floor.

      More convenient to downtown Bangkok, you can also take a minibus from near the Victory Monument (Anusawari Chai), near the BTS skytrain. Cost is 180 baht, limited baggage. The Hua Hin vans board in the alleyway next to Century Movie Plaza close to the stairs at the southern end of Victory Monument BTS station. From the Skytrain station, take the walkway south, descend the staircase on the east side to street level. The minibus area is next to the stairs. Look for a small table with "Cha Am, Hua Hin" written in English to buy your ticket. (as at Dec 2014 the minibuses have been moved along Phaya Thai Road, underneath the BTS line as it goes towards Phaya Thai station). T-Tour, Tel. 080-090-6540

      Minibuses from Hua Hin back to BKK (180 baht) leave opposite the Pananchai Hotel in Naebkehas Rd, some 200 m along a side road from the clock tower. Service to Pattaya as well.

      The main bus station is well outside the centre of town on Petkasem Rd beyond Soi 94. This is some 3 km south of town centre. A tuk tuk there costs ~180 baht. This bus station is for buses which are going to or from Bangkok and points south. Update: May 2015, two official tourist board offices inform travelers that the main bus station only serves south destinations, not Bangkok. You can catch, however, a no-frills bus from an office in the centre of town for 160 baht.

      The "bus station" noted on maps of the area is a local one in the centre of town from where all the non-air-con local buses and songteows depart, but blue buses from Bangkok terminate here, and probably leave from here also. The orange bus from Bangkok Southern Terminal (150 baht) which takes about 3.5 hours, meanders along the main road and you specify where you want to get off. The other first class buses go to the station beyond Soi 94 on Petkasem. Stop the bus at any point prior to this if you want to get off. The clock tower on the left (coming from Bangkok) is effectively the town centre, but keep your eyes open as it is easy to miss.

    • By boat

      There used to be a ferry between Pattaya and Hua Hin, but it stopped running in Dec., 2011.

    • By taxi

      Taking a taxi from Bangkok to Hua Hin (distance about 200 km) is possible. Price after negotiation should cost around 2,000 baht: the price for a taxi from Suwarnabhumi (Bangkok) airport was 2,600 baht in November 2009 (3,800 - 4,000 baht, January 2014). The limousine services available at Bangkok Airport are more expensive than an ordinary taxi.

      Private taxi from Hua Hin to BKK Airport should be in 1,600-2,000 baht, and is bookable via agents around town. A few are located outside the post office, and others are along Naresdamri Rd.

      Taxi to or from Pattaya around 3,000 baht.

    • By minivan

      There are regular minivans to and from Hua Hin from various cities. Price from [wiki=507f15ea27c0d2ff2a4f55aa8c93d104]Kanchanaburi[/wiki] (3.5 hours) was around 250 baht [jan 2014]. There is a scam - the driver will stop somewhere in the city a short distance from the bus station, and shout at foreigners that it's the "final stop" and starting throwing your bags in the street. He only tells foreigners to get off and won't let you stay even when local Thais tell you plainly "this is not the final stop". A songthaew waits to transport you the last few hundred metres of your journey for an outrageous 150 baht. This seems to be a common scam with the minivans in Thailand.

  • filter_dramaGet around
    There are many ways to get around in Hua Hin, Songthaew runs the same routes all day and cost not so high starting from 10 Thai baht, and price depends to the distance you are going to. If well out of town, you pay more. There are numerous motorcycle taxis and tuk-tuks, fewer car taxis. Negotiate price beforehand, but you will not get a tuk tuk for less than B100 over any distance (unless you are lucky) if you are a Western tourist. There are quite a lot of upscale tourists in Hua Hin and prices are sometimes adjusted upwards. Better to clarify the matter ahead of time. Motorcycle rentals are readily available. Hua Hin is very flat, and bicycle is a good way to get around locally. Rentals available, but not so prevalent as motorcycles.

    You can use the local songteows, and a white one leaves from the train station and travels south along the main road to the Huaymongkol Temple, which is some distance from the city B40. It then goes to the floating market (B20), and then back to town(B20)
  • filter_dramaSee
    There is only one beach, Hua Hin Beach (ชายหาดหัวหิน Hat Hua Hin) which runs from one side of Hua Hin to the other. Hua Hin Beach extends three kilometres southwards from a rocky headland until a southern headland where a Buddhist temple cling to the cliffs. Fine white sand, resort hotels and many water sports opportunities lend the resort its distinctive ambiance. At the south end of town, the hill of Khao Takiab interrupts the beach. On the other side (technically not Hua Hin anymore) is a lovely swimming beach with a view of Khao Takiab's South face. Just a little further on, Suan Son beach is owned by the Thai army, but open to the public. Notable for the tropical sea pines lining the shore. A little south of the Marriott, watch for tiny sand crabs digging industriously leaving odd patterns of tiny sand clods around their beachfront property.

    Parts of the beach closer to the town may have greenish water, in this case continue walking down the beach where the water appears cleaner. There is ample supply of deck chairs along the beach, however many places will charge for their hire (100 baht is common). Deck chairs that are part of a beachside cafe may be free (in the assumption you will buy food or drink).

    The hill of Khao Takiab, 8 kilometres from Hua Hin town, supports Buddhist temples and offers a commanding view of the resort, particularly early in the morning. A local bus service from Hua Hin to Khao Takiap is on the seashore. Khao Takiab is one of the highest area in Hua Hin, by going up this mountain by driving you will see the whole Hua Hin and also nice beaches. This is another good place to wait for the sunset as well. Also the food on Khao Takiab is very delicious too.

    • Medical Tourism

      For medical tourists seeking a calmer, more relaxed destination by the sea, Hua Hin is probably the perfect choice. It may be small compared to Bangkok, but it nonetheless offers top quality medical, dental, and spa services. One good hospital is the JCI-accredited Bangkok Hospital Hua Hin.

      Services and facilities in Hua Hin have risen along with the number of medical tourists and travelers coming there. This includes English- and other language-speaking doctors and staff, international liaisons if not departments, and special medical check-up and holiday packages for tourists seeking some quality primary care.

      Sao Paulo-Hua Hin Hospital was the first private hospital built here, a boutique hospital with sixty beds that provides excellent healthcare treatment around the clock. Other popular clinics and hospitals in town include Hua Hin International Polyclinic, Hua Hin Red Cross, and Hua Hin Hospital, in addition to the aforementioned Bangkok Hospital Hua Hin, the local medical trendsetter and innovator.

      Savvy travelers have clued into Hua Hin’s offerings, which belie its size, and though many would have liked to keep it an open secret, the word got out a while ago now; that is, a short drive from the megalopolis of Bangkok exists a prime seaside resort where one need not sacrifice quality, care, resources, or facilities. And if its spas or golf you also happen to be into, you’ll most likely find yourself returning to Hua Hin time and time again.

    • Reading matter

      There are a number of English-language publications, offering a variety of styles, as well as information and entertainment. Long time visitors to the town will have been familiar with the free monthly Hua Hin Observer magazine found around the town, but as of January 2010 this has become an online only publication ([url=http://www.observergroup.net]).]Another monthly publication (which you have to pay for) is the Hua Hin Today newspaper which can be a little 'dry' for tourists, as it contains plenty of local government and local dignitaries news along with details of the latest infrastructure projects and housing developments. It also has an online presence [url=http://www.huahintoday.net/[/url]]but this is more of a portal for international news and selling property than a local site. More of interest to tourists is the widely available free weekly AWOL newspaper, which is a mixture of entertaining true and not so true stories, typical tabloid content such as a page 3 girl, sport coverage and major local news stories. AWOL also has a website [url=http://www.awolonline.net[/url]]which includes a discussion forum, free classifieds and all their back issues to download. The longest established local internet forum is Hua Hin After Dark [http://www.huahinafterdark.com[/url] which is a valuable source of information for both tourists and expats alike, although its slightly cliquey attitude can be off putting and discussions can often turn into playground squabbles.
      There are a number of other printed publications and internet sites connected to Hua Hin, but they are mostly concerned with selling or renting property, or promoting another local business. There are also a couple of non-English language publications with a small distribution.

    Landline telephone, all mobile phone systems, internet, post offices and parcel services are available in Hua Hin. There is a city wide free wifi service as well, although speeds tend to be slow and a signal difficult to obtain outside the central area. Tourist information can be found from the corner of Petchkasem Road and Damnerkasem Road (Soi 76), quite close to the railway station. There is also a tourist information centre near the clock tower in the centre of town, which is right next to a Starbucks for those of you requiring a caffeine fix. This is also where many of the big buses will stop to offload and pick up passengers, even though it is not the official bus station, and consequently is an easy place to find a motorcycle taxi or tuk tuk.
