Hua Hin

Although Hua Hin is small, its historic tourism industry ensures many things to do. Hua Hin Beach was the reason the town was founded, and starting the morning with a stroll or light jog along its striking white sands is a great way to start the day. For those looking for a little more adventure and a slightly more challenging route, the trail up to Khao Ta Kiap, the hill at the southern end of Hua Hin Beach, just 4 km from the town, is a great goal. From the top of the hill, the panoramic views of Hua Hin and the surrounding coast make the effort worth it. This is a great spot to see the sun both rise and set.
