The Gulf of Thailand - Classic Retreats and Modern Resorts


back to topPrachuap Khiri Khan

Although Hua Hin is by far the most famous beach resort in Prachuap Khiri Khan, it by no means exhausts the province’s seaside venues. Although nowhere else is quite so well developed in terms of tourism facilities, other spots south along the coast offer basic comforts and considerable unspoilt scenic charm.

Prachuap Khiri Khan

Immediately south of the provincial capital is Ao Manao, a picturesque bay ringed by a clean white sandy beach, while small offshore islands add further interest. Heading down the coast, the two districts of Thap Sakae and Bang Saphan, while of no special interest in themselves, are the gateways to some good beaches that for the moment remain largely undiscovered. The best spots are Wanakon and Laem Kum beaches near Thap Sakae, and Sai Kaeo, Ban Krut, Khiriwong, and Ban Nong Mongkhon beaches in the vicinity of Bang Saphan.

Airconditioned buses to Prachuap Khiri Khan depart Bangkok’s Southern Bus Terminal and take 4-5 hours to complete the journey. There is also a train service from the Thai capital, as well as bus and train services from Hua Hin.
