(17684)
Night market
Museums
Weekend night market with vendors selling art, clothing, decor & handmade goods, plus entertainment.
Slide 1 of 8
Whilst the experience buying food was lacklustre, the kind of shopping you can do at cicada market was really unique! Many skilled craftsmen selling their crafts which you can bring home. Live music and magic show was also very lively, overall still enjoyed ourselves here :)
The market offers a variety of performances, as well as art and food for sale (though the taste might be a bit bland for a Thai like me). If you want to buy food, exchange your coupon first. I also recommend the massage shop at the very back. The masseuses are very skilled. I felt so comfortable that I fell asleep during the massage.
Cicada Market is a must-visit in Hua Hin. It's a fantastic night market with a wonderful atmosphere. It stands out from other markets because it's not just about shopping; it's a great spot for art and entertainment. The market has a wide variety of stalls, especially for handmade crafts, jewelry, artwork, home decor, and clothing. It's the perfect place to find unique, locally made souvenirs and gifts. There are also live performances and music, which really adds to the vibrant energy of the place. It's clear that many international tourists enjoy this market, which gives it a lively, multicultural feel. For food, there's a large food center where you need to purchase coupons before ordering, which makes the process smooth and easy. The food options are great and cater to different tastes. Parking is available across the street. While there's a fee, the lot is large. The overall landscape of the market is beautiful and well-maintained. If you're looking for a market with good food, beautiful art, and a lively vibe, Cicada Market is the place to be. Highly recommended.
A wonderful night market with good food, good vibe and interesting artisan stalls. The pad thai hor kai, oyster omelette, coconut ice cream, and mango smoothie are all very delicious. There is a shadow show with a teenager singing and playing the shadow character, which is very interesting.
Visited Cicada Market and had a really great time! The place is lively with lots of people and a fun, relaxed vibe. There’s a wide variety of goods — handmade crafts, local art, clothing, and delicious street food. It’s a great spot to walk around, shop, and enjoy the evening. The location is very convenient, right in Hua Hin city, easy to find and close to many hotels and attractions. The atmosphere feels creative and full of energy, with live music and local artists adding to the charm. Overall, Cicada Market is a must-visit when in Hua Hin — perfect for shopping, relaxing, and soaking up the local vibe!
Cicada Market is a must-visit spot in Hua Hin! 🎨✨ The atmosphere is vibrant and relaxing — full of art, handmade crafts, live music, and delicious street food. The market is beautifully organized and clean, with friendly vendors and a creative vibe everywhere. The food court area offers a wide variety of Thai and international dishes at reasonable prices, and the art stalls showcase unique local talent — perfect for souvenirs or gifts. Live performances and soft lighting in the evening make it feel magical. A great place to spend your weekend evening enjoying food, art, and culture all in one place. 🌿🎶
Great night market with lots of arts, handcrafted goods and live music and live acts all around, also some activities for kids to enjoy. The food variety offers something for everyone, but I would still recommend to go for authentic Thai dishes, there is so much, you may have to come multiple times 😊 It’s very convenient to get there, paid parking spaces are also available for 50 thb.
Cool market, offering some different things to the usual stuff you see, at a slightly higher price. Good food options, and live music. Definitely worth a visit
Hua Hin Beach
2. Hua Hin Beach

(6826)
Beach
Outdoor Activities
Clear-water beach for swimming, with rentable lounge chairs, water sports & amenities nearby.
Slide 1 of 8
Very nice beach with warm waters to swim. Small shops on the way to the beach. Kids and adults had a good time walking along the water and exploring small animals. There were plenty of horse-riding options available at a charge of 250-300 per horse.
Went here and it having food festival.. Berry crowded.. many food and drink stalls.. Music.. Water fountain and lights in the night.. I saw many family here also lovers.. Everyone relaxing and enjoying the views and vibes.. So happy to feel this beach with the festival U can find temples and monkeys too Aaaah elephant village too
This is one long beachfront for the numerous hotels and condos. Except for the northern tip there is basically no place to sit and enjoy. The white sand is mostly washed away. Dirty with plastics in many places. Jet skis drive very close to the coast making it dangerous to swim. A lot of horse handlers walk the beach looking for customers. Is a sad scene honestly.
This beach is nice but crowded. I rented a chair with umbrella roof for 100b. It started to rain and the umbrella roof didn’t help. I ordered a coconut smoothie for 70b. Both were expensive I thought. I’ll check out a different area of the beach next time.
This beach somehow disappointed me in every way. I did not expected this but yeah seems like very much under developed one Will update it as I am planning to visit again
This is a long beach, so I'll focus on the northern end bounded by Hilton since that is my preferred part of the beach. The reason is simply the ability to get deck chairs, loungers and food brought to you without having to use one of the beachfront resorts. There's about 20 deck chair vendors and in low season, there's not really enough customers to go around. The food and drinks cover the standard Thai options. The food is pretty overpriced, but that's the price you pay for convenience. Some people mentioned clean water, but it didn't look clean to me. I was there during low season and there weren't that many beach activities other than horse riding. In the 7 days on the beach I saw one group take a banana boat ride and one jet ski ride, so the activities do run if there are enough people.
Have many rocks here but it's nice , the only place you can get shade if you get a table. Food good and beers around 70 bht for a small my club sandwich 200 bht , tables normal free if you order . Not bad. Can check out youtube video. @chilishot5760 .
Hua Hin Beach is a beautiful place to watch the sunrise. The beach faces east, so the sun rises directly over the sea. In the early morning, the sky changes color—orange, pink, and gold. The beach is quiet, with only a few people walking or monks collecting alms. The sand is soft, and the sound of waves is peaceful. It is a perfect time to relax and enjoy nature. A good spot to see the sunrise is in front of Centara Grand Beach Resort. This area has rocks and coconut trees, making the view more special. Another nice place is Khao Takiab Beach, which is quieter and has a clear view of the sunrise.   If you visit Hua Hin, I recommend waking up early to see the sunrise. It is a peaceful and beautiful experience that you will remember.
Hutsadin Elephant Foundation
3. Hutsadin Elephant Foundation
4.1
(827)
Foundation
Nature & Parks
Facility that cares for elephants & offers interactive experiences & information for visitors.
Slide 1 of 8
If you want to see elephants, support this place! Do your research and do not go to alternative nearby spots. You can’t ride an elephant here, though no one needs nor should ride an elephant. The educational piece is great and the elephants are well looked after. There are four elephants, all either with health concerns or rescues. Yes they’re chained, but it’s necessary. They’re lined to reduce friction and they're given more freedom in the evenings. Nice venue with statues and the whole team was great, you can feel the love for these animals. Highly recommend.
A great and ethical elephant sanctuary. They have 4 elephants and the activities you can do with them are awesome. No riding thankfully. But to walk, feed and bathe the elephants is a fantastic experience. It is slightly on the touristy side as they will offer you multiple opportunities to buy trinkets or donate, so bring extra cash and don't be stingy. The operation is efficient, easy to understand and fun. If you choose the walking activity (which I highly recommend) you'll have multiple opportunities to get photos. If you decide to view the temple on site, be sure to dress appropriately as it IS a working temple.
Having spent some time researching local elephant sanctuaries, this one seemed the most legitimate and it was. Other local companies are exploitative of the elephants, whereas these are rescue ones who are impeccably well cared for and loved by the volunteers and that comes across when you’re there. We paid for the walk with them and we walked with Song Gram, the teenage elephant who when you say thank you to her she toots her trunk! She’d been rescued from a circus near Bangkok and they were rehabilitating her and hope to release into the wild. The tour was excellent and they explained how they give them free time on the mountain and are only linked up for short periods, but the chain on the leg itself is plastic so won’t hurt. There’s a small gift shop there selling t shirts, key rings etc, or you can buy handmade jewellery from the mahouts (elephant carer) to supplement their income. Overall, I’d fully recommend this charity and heavily recommend researching the other local companies before going. There’s no need to ride an elephant.
A nice stop to get close and personal with rescue elephants without promoting irresponsible business. This small foundation, located on a thai chinese temple ground, only has 4 rescued elephants. The animals are well cared for by volunteers. Visitors are only allowed to have a short 20-min walk with a little feeding and showering interaction - with the option of an educational class (charged extra). The price to pay must be seen in my opinion as a donation to help the foundation maintain their rescued elephants rather than a ticket for an "elephants experience". Overall and after visiting many "elephants camps" in Thailand, we liked this place. The enthusiasm and passion of the volunteer we met gave us a positive feeling about the foundation and how they operate.
Love this place. Rescue centre for Elephants. No riding or tricks ,just good care for Elephants. Can walk with them , shower them and feed them. Staff are polite and friendly and don't try to sell you stuff. Runs on donations
It was a wonderful encounter with the elephants followed by education about the animals and their past. Yes, the elephants are often chained up, which is also explained on site and why this is the case. Of course, it would be best if all elephants lived in freedom, but unfortunately this is a utopia. You pay a fair entrance fee and then have the opportunity to donate and/or give tips on site. But you are not pressurised to do so. The entrance fee includes a bottle of water and an ice cream. Whether the Foundation makes a profit from this or not and whether the money goes entirely to animal welfare is, of course, not something you can know, but you have to decide whether you trust the honesty of the Foundation that this is true. The elephants are certainly much better off, even if they still live in captivity and are used as an attraction. But somehow the money for their expensive keeping has to come in. What really bothered me, however, was that the mahout advertised his bracelets as being "made from elephant teeth" on the card. In my opinion, that's a no-go. Apart from that, I can recommend the place and hope that the elephants continue to have a dignified and beautiful life.
This is a self funded , nonprofit organization, which rescued injured and unwanted elephants and treats them with food and shelter. The guide was quite knowledgeable and helpful. We fed bananas to the elephants and walked along with the elephant in the designated path . Later we bathed elephants. The cost is 800 Thai Bhat per person. The receptionist also offered us nice ice cream. We enjoyed our visit here
Great experience! We came on Monday because there were English speaking volunteers but they ended up leaving at 12pm (we came around 3pm). But our guide was amazing, spoke great English and was very informative. We walked, fed and bathed the elephant. It was 800 Baht total per person. The elephants are all rescues and look to be taken care of well. They did not push for donations and did provide ice cream at the end. I would definitely recommend going here over other locations!
Wat Huay Mongkol
4. Wat Huay Mongkol
4.6
(14391)
Buddhist temple
Museums
Parklike Buddhist temple known for its enormous statue of storied monk Luang Pu Thuat.
Slide 1 of 8
A little out of the way but the expansive grounds and number of shrines, statues, and gardens makes the trip worthwhile. We went on a Sunday and quite a lot of people there. Has a few cafes for food and coffee in nice shaded areas. Lake is particularly nice and can release and feed fish. Some fish are huge, so dont release your little fish there 😅 Nice that foreigner tax not charged for entry
The atmosphere is very shady and peaceful. The sculptures are beautiful. There is a convenience store, a cafe, and a fish feeding point. (There are no public buses at this time. I recommend driving yourself. If you take a motorcycle or Grab, have the driver wait to take you back.)
What a lovely temple area. The statue from the old monk is impressive, but don't forget to explore the complete area with many other shrein and lakes. For me the highlight was the massive Budda statue at the far end of the era. I was lucky and had the place for myself. Most people stay around the monk statue
What a beautiful temple. A lot of history and tradition.It's a stunning temple to go to.The statues are absolutely amazing and so interkit in their detail.I highly recommend that you visit.
Easy scooter ride and beautiful. Don’t stop at just the first black monk statue, go past that to the gold temple about 300 meters past the first most popular statue.
Transquil and big estate. The big statue will meet you the moment u reach the temple. There is a fish pond right behind the temple where you can pay to feed the carps. When u reach the pond you will find a pleasant surprise, a gold buddha statue from the neighbouring temple.
This Temple is amazing and shares a deep history of Buddhism and Buddhists in Thailand. Luang Pu Thuat, a highly revered monk serve the Thailand Buddhist community for over a century! It is said that anyone who possessed an amulet made in his era, contain superpowers of protection that were sacred.
Disappointed. There are signs promoting this place fairly heavily. It's nice, but there are basically two things to see and way too many people selling stuff for my personal taste. I don't regret going there, but I also don't recommend it.
Vana Nava Water Jungle
5. Vana Nava Water Jungle
4.4
(5691)
Water park
Water & Amusement Parks
Jungle-themed attraction with waterslides, plus an obstacle course, multiple pools & concessions.
Slide 1 of 8
The garden is large, spacious, and safe, and has excellent service. There are people who take care of the service all the time. There are a lot of food for sale, but the price is quite high. But the food is delicious. Fun and thrilling rides But continue to play the rides, but it's a bit long because there are quite a lot of people. The bathroom is clean. Suitable for having fun with many friends or family.
Large and beautiful water park in Hua Hin which is a must visit if you are here on a family holiday. We were there when it opened at 11am and were there all day until 5pm. We booked a deal via trip.com for around 1200thb per person which included towel, locker, VR and buffet. I didn't try VR myself. But the feedback from the kids was that it was quite disappointing in terms of experience and the resolution of the technology itself. When it comes to the food, I thought the buffet was a good deal for the price we paid. With the buffet option you can get as much food, drinks and snacks as you want until an hour before closing time. It's not food you'll dream about afterwards. But it's totally fine. There is a lot of choice of food stations around the place. The prices seemed totally ok. We got there at 11am when it opened and it wasn't until 1200 that it was crowded. At 3-4 pm there were significantly fewer people. Missed more info about the place, especially regarding food and dining options in advance and on the website. So here they can definitely improve. Thats why I also took alot of images from the food menues around Vana Nada to help other in the same situation. Tip: check around on both trip.com, Klook for the best deal!
The overall experience is really good but let me get one point across first. I don't know for others, but for me I feel like the floor type they have is not barefoot friendly so keep that in mind. (They do have waterproof shoes for sale but those are extra expenses.) I also heard that booking beforehand could be cheaper but I don't know for sure. The buffet is also ok, it's not amazing but it's not bad either. But I suggest adding credits to your wristbands and buy food from the stalls. That way, it might not be better pound-for-pound but it's more convenient and there are more diverse options. (Not cheap but not too expensive). Plus point for how many life guards there are. I feel really safe and they have extra security compared to anywhere I've been to. All the rides are quite generic, like all other water parks in Thailand (you can just check that up). Very good hospitality as well, both from tourists and the staffs. Oh, last thing. There's also rock climbing but you will need a sneaker to play it. Checklist - Change of cloths. - Goggles if you want to swim. (Optional) - Towel (optional, can rent) - Shampoo and soap (optional, they have 2 in 1sin every shower room) - waterproof shoes (optional, they have for sale and if you are ok with barefoot then it's fine). - Money for food credits. And if you have glasses, put those in a locker room. Don't wear clothes that hasza zipper or a button at the back because you might not be able to play some rides. Have fun!
I really enjoyed this waterpark—it’s so much fun! There are plenty of rides and attractions, and the slides are long and super exciting. It’s a great place to spend the day, especially with friends. We had such a fun time there, and I’d definitely go back again!
It is a nice water park for the kids and adults There are 3-4 exciting slides, you can choose to sit on the boat to slide from about 30 meters high down to the ground
If you have a family or just enjoy a good water park than this place is right up your alley. The wait times aren't that bad on weekdays and they have enough activities you wont get board. Lots of food options plus even a Vegan menu which was so nice.
Buy your tickets online (Trip.com or Agoda) — it’s about double the price if you buy at the entrance. Vana Nava Water Jungle is a medium-sized water park, nice enough for a half-day visit. The main restaurant (the one with burgers, fries, nuggets, salmon, etc.) was a big disappointment. What you get compared to the photos is nothing alike — the portions are ridiculously small. I had to order three meals at 300 THB each just to feel barely full. Definitely not great value, and a bit dishonest. Crowds were manageable during our visit, with a maximum wait time of about 30 minutes for the area where four slides share the same tower — although it gets messy there, with people practically stepping on each other. The VR experience didn’t look impressive, so we skipped it. The locker system with the wristband is basic but convenient. There are also a couple of climbing attractions located just to the left of the lockers and buffet restaurant, but unfortunately they were closed when we visited, which was disappointing. Overall, the park is average — nothing amazing. We’ve seen much better elsewhere, but in Thailand, especially Hua Hin, there’s not really any better option.
We visited in June and it was really quiet. Service was friendly and the Park was clean. Food buffet was mediocre, but who comes here for food. We came to the Park without knowing how everything works and there was a few misunderstandings on our part. For example we didn't realise that we had to put money to our bracelet beforehand and caused a little confusion. It could have been communicated better by the Park, but the mistake was of course ours.
Monsoon Valley Vineyard

Restaurant
Food & Drink
Slide 1 of 8
Food was fresh and tasty. Had the wine and tapas tasting. Definitely worth it. The ambience is cooling and different as there are not many vineyards in thailand. Staff was attentive and friendly. Maybe you could have a bigger play area for the kids and have a wine tasting fee that allows customers to taste any wine they choose to.
I enjoyed my experience here. Affordable food and the wine tasting was great. Just unfortunate the weather was bad so couldn’t go for a vineyard tour. The service is great and they are quite friendly staff too. Clean and beautiful
I attended a private theater night event with a 3-course wine pairing meal. It was an incredible experience. We were super lucky with the weather—cool and pleasant, making it a great time to sit in the middle of a vineyard. The food was exceptional, perfectly complementing the classic film Sideways, which delves into intriguing topics about wine. It was a truly memorable evening, and I was grateful for the invitation!
Arrived here on the 10am shuttle from the Monsoon Valley Wine Bar. Journey time approximately 45 minutes. At 11am the group of us were taken on a vineyard tour. English speaking guide and very knowledgeable. The tour lasted about 30 minutes and included in the price of the shuttle from the wine bar if I recall correctly. The views are beautiful and it is well worth seeing. After the vineyard tour a group of us were taken to the elephant 🐘 sanctuary where we were able to feed bananas to two male elephants (6yo 10yo). Didn't last long but still enjoyable and worth doing. Back to the restaurant where we had lunch and wine tasting with tapas. Sadly this is when the place let us down as the tapas did not arrive at the same time as they gave me the wines to taste. The cashew chicken is delicious. As were the tapas. On an aside the views from the toilets are worth seeing
Very good wine and food; with an excellent atmosphere. This is my second visit to the vineyard and noticed this time we pulled up to a booth which required each person pay a cash only 200 ThB fee before you can enter the parking lot. This voucher can be used toward any expense including wine, your meal, or items in the gift shop, etc. They do not have any sweet wine options to choose from, but my party liked the Signature Red wine. The food taste and presentation are very good. I gave the food 4 stars because I thought the amount of food on several plates were a bit sparse. I would have liked to see a slightly larger portion knowing the price paid ~370 ThB per plate. The cheesecake was one of the best I've had in Thailand so far. I am not a big wine person but I don't believe you would be disappointed with this place.
I was genuinely surprised to learn that Thailand produces wine—and even more delighted to discover this stunning vineyard! The setting is absolutely gorgeous: peaceful, scenic, and immaculately maintained. It's the kind of place where you instantly feel relaxed and connected to nature. Whether you're a wine lover or just looking for a unique and tranquil experience, I highly recommend a visit. This vineyard is a true hidden gem that showcases a different side of Thailand—one that’s elegant, serene, and full of pleasant surprises. Definitely worth a visit!
Good place to visit when in the area. Very well kept vineyard. Only had coffee and dessert that was ok a bit on the pricey side but to be expected for where you are very nice saroundings. Very attentive team that work there. They have a couple of elephants near by that they can organise to for you to see.
Let’s get the first problem over with John Monsoon, the dessert is awful. I ordered a berry pie and it’s just a shell with berry concentrate filled to the brim, and not even your wine could tune down this deadly sweetness. But apart from their food, I think the wine tastes great! It pairs well with the beautiful, mountain-stretching vineyard. The winetasting tour on the other hand doesn’t bode well with the time I went there. It’s said that the best time to take the tour is in February or March, so I couldn’t be bothered.
Black Mountain Water Park

(1755)
Water park
Water & Amusement Parks
Large water recreation complex with 9 slides & 7 different types of pools, plus dining facilities.
Slide 1 of 8
Perfect spot for a relaxed family day - kids loved the safe water rides, we enjoyed the peaceful vibe and good food. Just make sure to arrange a ride back in advance, as taxis aren’t always eager to come here
We had a fantastic day out at the black mountain water park with our kids ages 11 and under. We went during the week so it was quiet with no waits for the rides. The park is a perfect size to feel relaxed and not frantic. There are lots of seating areas around the park. Also the restaurant is very well priced and the food is tasty. I recommend buying tickets online in advance as it is cheaper that way. Lockers are available free of charge with a 200baht deposit. Lastly, this place doesn’t have the bigger rides or more thrill seeking rides like vana nava but there’s more than enough to keep everyone happy. Oh and the wave pool was an absolute favourite.
My partner and our 3 kids (aged 1, 5, and 11 years old) visited this waterpark on a quiet, slightly rainy, Tuesday afternoon. The park is small but surprisingly there's plenty to do. There is a pool for younger children in the corner of the park which is great, along with the lazy river. Then there's the wave pool and of course the big slides which are for the older children. The restaurant food was not bad but could do with more variety. NOTE: Please be aware they the red and green coloured floor around the entire park is horrendously slippery when wet. Whoever decided this was a good idea was wrong and they need to replace it before someone is hurt, it's terrible, we had to keep to the none coloured part which is much safer to walk on. The toilets are also like an ice rink when wet. Worth the admission fee of about 1500 baht for all of us.
This place is magical. A fantastic water park that deserves more visitors. We were there during Thailand's low season, and there were maybe 20 visitors in total. Prices: We paid 800 baht for a round-trip tuk-tuk. I’m glad we booked the return trip as well—there was one tuk-tuk when we were ready to leave, and I think it was there to pick someone else up. The area is quite remote, so make sure you arrange your return in advance. Entrance fee: 600 baht for adults. In Thailand, you’re often considered an adult based on your height, so my 13-year-old was charged as an adult. We paid at the park. Lockers: 200 baht deposit, which you get back. Food: You need a food card, and you have to load money onto it. Any remaining balance is refunded when you return the card. Soda: 30 baht Burger: 200 baht (250 with cheese) Fries: 100 baht So a bit more expensive than in restaurants, but still very affordable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. It’s located about 20 minutes outside the city center by tuk-tuk. Maintenance was surprisingly good, and everything was clean. This park is cheaper than the other one, and it has slides for kids, the cautious, and the daredevils. Wave pool with 10 minutes of waves and 30 minutes pause. There’s nothing to think about—set aside a full day here. We left at 3 PM because that’s when our tuk-tuk was coming back, but we really wished we could’ve stayed all day.
Nice water park. Not many people on Monday. 1800 THB for 2 adults and 2 kids above 110 cm.
It's a great place for family fun! The waterslides are exciting and adrenaline-pumping! The pools are clean and spacious, and the staff at the entrance are very welcoming. They have one restaurant on site, though.
Good fun water place if you love laid on sun bed where’s plenty of them available here!! Nice clean place with fresh air no smoker on sight during ours time there. Affordable price to entry book 1 day advance to save for food there. Wave pool is the fun part give them a try.
I have been bringing my child to this water park almost every week. While the park itself is enjoyable, I have some serious concerns. The front desk staff, especially those selling tickets, often seem unfriendly and curt in their communication. We usually visit on Saturdays to take advantage of the half-price promotion, and the prices themselves are reasonable—150 THB for children and 300 THB for adults. However, I strongly believe the park should define “child” tickets by age, not height. Some children are naturally taller because of their parents’ genetics, and it’s not their fault. It feels unfair when one child has to pay an adult price just because of height, while their friends pay less. If this height-based rule is strictly followed, does that mean a dwarf who doesn’t meet the height requirement would be charged a child ticket? This policy is honestly quite absurd. Also, if someone enters the park but doesn’t use any of the facilities, it would make much more sense to allow the entrance fee to be deducted from food or drink purchases inside. That would be a fairer and more customer-friendly approach. I’ve lived in Hua Hin for decades—I’m not a tourist. I’ve supported many local businesses over the years, but after this experience, I’m truly disappointed. As a regular customer, I expected better service and understanding. Unfortunately, this will be my last visit.

Lovely sandy beach, very long. Buddha statue was cool
Not a great beach compared to phuket beaches, water recedes along way so you ll have to walk along way just to swim. Sand is a brown/Gray colour and not compelled to even get in the water . Restaurants along the shore are good but not much open before 12 pm. Lucky to be 2 stars Not going back.
This beach is quiet and medium in size. There’s a few restaurants with loungers and chairs. Also, there’s plenty of empty areas to relax and chill on the beach. Jet ski rentals and banana boat rides available. The water was a little cloudy but still clear enough. Recommended
Ooh so many monkeys!! Quiet, peaceful beach. Lots of beachside restaurants Many boats offering sunset tours I went to find a quiet place to read. Was not disappointed. If you're looking for a quiet, chilled vibe this may be the place for you
Very nice beach Helpful staff with ordering of food, drinks, sunbeds Nice people offering clothes etc, not pushy
Khao Takiab Beach is beautiful, offering the perfect mix of sea and mountain views. It’s very peaceful and clean, with soft sand and not overcrowded. Arriving by bike was easy, with convenient parking just steps away. It has easily become my favorite beach in Hua Hin.
I visited during the Songkran holiday, but it is a good place where there are not many people and the sunrise can be seen beautifully. In particular, rocky mountains create a special mood. The wind is very strong!
Great beach. We were on the beach section associated with the Anantasila hotel, near to the harbour and rock. Soft sand, clean in the section we were in and the water was great for swimming (didn't spot any jelly fish). It was high tide and we originally went to Hua Hin beach (where there was no beach because the tide was so high and the waves were rough!). Much more sheltered here and a good section of beach even at the high tide. Service from the hotel was excellent (we paid 500THB for day pass and got loungers, could use the pool, showers, etc). You could try the other sections, which might be cheaper. Mix of people, relaxed atmosphere, lots of Europeans and also Thais. Yes there were two or three horses and later on there were some dogs but neither were intrusive at all.

It's like a hidden gem. From the outside, you won't notice any thing unsual, the street outside the building is normal and unimpressive. Once you go into the building, it's a whole new atmosphere. The place is full of attractively decorated shop, ranged from local snack food, candies, cakes to playful sourvenirs. There is music band playing near the Ferris Wheel and they are having fun I'm going to miss such a warm place. I feel like you can put your busy world behind, just relax and enjoy the atmosphere.
Many shops and cafe inside with affordable price. Friendly staff inside the area and it's free entrance. Enjoy many spots for taking great pictures. I went there by motorbike and the parking guy asked for 220 Bath just for parking!! When i refused he asked me to leave. Very rude.
A good place to stop by before heading back to Bangkok. 40baht parking fee. No entrance fee. The guard just had a counter to click how many people coming in the place. One of the food vendors was so helpful to tell me about this vintage place. Food between 50-60baht but a bit small portion only.
Small place to visit probably 30minutes, no entrance fee. There is a live band performance at the time. Plenty of shops and food store. Great place for photography at evening.

One of the best places to be in Hua Hin! 😍 A shopping mall with a lot of different kind of shops, supermarkets, restaurants etc. We especially loved the food market in the basement where you can eat A LOT of lovely food! We ate here every day during our entire stay in Hua Hin (few weeks)😃 We also found it much better than Bluport.
A Must-Visit Business & Shopping Hub in the City! 🏙️🛍️ If you ever find yourself in this city, this place is a must-visit! ⭐ It might just be the largest business and shopping center in the region 🏢✨. This modern shopping complex is incredibly clean, spacious, and well-organized. No matter what you’re looking for, you’ll likely find it here at reasonable prices 🛒💰. From fashion and electronics to everyday essentials, the variety is impressive! A Great Spot to Spend Time & Enjoy Delicious Food 🍽️ Spending time here is a great experience, whether you're shopping or just exploring. The lower floors house an amazing food court, offering fresh, delicious meals at incredibly affordable prices 🍜🥗. There are plenty of choices, from local specialties to international flavors, making it a great spot to grab a quick bite or sit down for a relaxed meal. Comprehensive Shopping & Services 🏦📱 This place isn't just about shopping! The top floor is home to banks, phone service providers, and other essential businesses, making it a convenient one-stop destination 🏦📞. You'll also find a mix of trendy fashion stores and budget-friendly clothing shops, meaning you can easily update your wardrobe without breaking the bank 👕👗. The entire place feels like a Western-style shopping mall, modern and well-equipped, which adds to its appeal. Friendly Staff & Easy Access to the Waterfront 🌊 One thing that stands out is the politeness and friendliness of most employees 😊👏. Unlike many other places, the staff here are welcoming and helpful, making the experience even more enjoyable. An interesting feature of this location is its direct connection to the waterfront! 🌅 As soon as you step outside, you'll find a pedestrian bridge—just cross to the other side, and you're at the seaside, making for a beautiful and scenic transition from shopping to relaxation 🚶‍♂️🌴. Highly Recommended! 🌟 Having visited a few times, I can confidently say that this place is worth checking out! Whether you're here for shopping, banking, eating, or just exploring, it offers everything in one spot. I would definitely return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city! ✅🙌
Excellent shopping center, has everything you need. Clothes, shoes, cosmetics, souvenirs, etc. Large food court. Various fairs are often held. Each holiday is celebrated with some kind of performance.
Great mall where you can find anything from delicious food to accessories, clothes, shoes. I went there straight to the food court and surprosingly the prices are cheap and delicious aa well. Also, if your waiting for your van going to Bangkok then you can wait here.
What an amazing mall. You will find everything you need there. I wished I found it earlier! The Lotus supermarket inside is everything❤️. There are ATMs, banks, mobile shop and mobile fix stalls. All types of food and friendly staff. There is so much to do, buy and see... There is even a relaxing area with fishes and another area to charge your mobile and sit. Don't forget to visit the basement area, there are four floors in total (I think 🤔😅). There is a car park and lots of takeaways (KFC, McDonald's, Burger King, Pizza, Dunkin Donut etc.), other stall and shopping for wine, ice, home electricians, hand crafted good, natural body and health products, suitcases, clothing and beachwear. High Recommend, must visit❣️
I think this is the largest mall in Hua Hin and it's a perfect size. They have Lotus supermarket and HomePro inside. Food court is downstairs in the basement. Very comfy and relaxing mall.
Very good shopping mall with local food floor, lots restaurants and shops. Enjoy now Christmas tree 🌲 decoration and discounts
Really well priced food court in yhe basement large meals from 45 baht. Fantastic variety of foods and vendors.The only issue is that there is a card system where by you add money to a card and use at the vendors ,this is a great idea but 50 percent of the vendors don't accept, only cash.The good thing is you can get unused cash back off your card. Overall a great experience.

Our favourite night market in Thailand. It's large but uncrowded, pleasant to walk through, with friendly vendors and reasonable prices. We particularly loved the OldTown patio market: good food, good vibes and a talented singer.
Definitely a hot spot for tourists. Prices are a bit higher in the area but you can find all kinds of things here from food to souvenirs. It’s not too crowded and food selections are decent.
Compared to other cities, this is a nice little night market with a mix of local crafts, clothing, food stalls, and restaurants. Usually it’s a pleasant and lively place to stroll around in the evening. However, when we were there, I had never seen it so empty — it felt unusually quiet that night.
Nice mix of food vendors, clothing, crafts and accessories shops. Some nice restaurants towards the western side of this closed street market. If you go the the very end of the night market on the west side, there are a few small (five or so tables) but great value restaurants along the main road. For eating, it's not on the scale of Tamarind, but a nice little place to visit.
Hua Hin Night Market is a fun place to visit with plenty of food stalls, souvenirs, and local products. The seafood options are fresh and delicious, and prices are quite reasonable. It can get very crowded, especially on weekends, but that’s part of the charm. A great spot for a casual evening walk and street food experience!
I love this market. Every time I come, I enjoy the variety of food available. So many delicious options, all at great prices. If you’re a foodie, this place is a must-visit. it’s full of tasty treats that you just have to try.
Amazing place to spend time have snaks do some shopping from street vendors & really good selections of seafood they open grom 5pm till midnight
I'm not really a fan of loud concerts and bars. I like peaceful places but the food was cheap if you looked in the right places and they had a good variety. I just wish it didn't feel so much like a nightclub around there. It's late in the evening and I just want to buy food.

Monkey mountain is no misnomer, there were indeed monkeys and plenty of them. It's quite a hill, so we took a taxi with Bolt up. The view is excellent at sunset and there are almost no tourists at this time either, but the temple was shut when we visited. We came for the view and monkeys and left very satisfied, taking a stroll down the hill to the restaurants at the foot of the hill serving fresh seafood.
Nice temple on a small hill with great views over Hua Hin and the coastline. The walk up is easy and worth it for the scenery. There are many monkeys around, so it’s best to be cautious with food and bags. Overall, a peaceful spot with a beautiful view and a glimpse of local temple life.
Beautiful temple situated on Hua Hin beach with a very steep climb up 150 steps to the top. Or alternatively you can drive or take a local taxi to the top. It is a must visit when in Hua Hin beautiful panoramic views of the whole bay.
I loved the view and the area this Wat is situated but the condition of it and all the stuff laying around that doesn’t add up to the religious place, made me kinda sad. They need a lot of donations and work to get the place back to its original sparkles. I loved the monkeys but was happy I didn’t bring food. My visit was at 7.30 and they looked hungry. Be aware that they think this place is their area, including toilet. Have a look around on the right down of the Wat and in front of it for a great view.
Nice walk up monkey mountain if you don't like monkeys, not a good place to go. Temple was pretty with a beautiful view. Shop was great with cheap cold drinks.
Stop by to pay respects and make merit at Khao Takiab Temple and take beautiful photos. There are many monkeys here who try to grab things and there are many foreign tourists. There is a sufficient amount of car parking space.
The temple is nice to visit but not really special. The monkeys are great to see how they live around the place. Take care with your belongings, especially food, but as long as you respect them they will respect you.
amazing view and very helpful and friendly monks. make sure to keep your belongings close and secure cause the monkeys will bite through plastic bags. can only recommend

Decent sized mall, has a supermarket, cinema, good court, etc. The cinema are is big enough and quite clean.. easy to purchase tickets, machines are very high tech.. select your movie, seat, and then swipe your card - your name will pop up automatically on the screen. Not too crowded compared to market village.. I prefer coming here instead. Very relaxing
Another prominent mall in the holiday town of Hua Hin. Initially we were expecting all the familiar restaurant like in Bangkok, but theres not that much restaurant in this mall. Lots of fashion goons on sale. The Mall is pet friendly and even pet friendly around the food court area. Despite being shopping mall, this mall is not well maintained, the toilet does not have the regular cleaning routine like that of Bangkok
Fabulous mall! ❤️ A Gem in Hua Hin – Bluport Mall! Absolutely love Bluport Mall! The nautical concept is beautifully done — from the decor to the overall layout, it gives such a refreshing coastal vibe with blue color touches everywhere. The mall is spacious, well-designed, and never feels crowded, making shopping here a real pleasure. You can find just about everything: stylish local clothing, unique well made souvenirs (fixed and well priced - stress free, without having to bargain your heart out 😊), quality Thai herbs and spices, phone gadgets, accessories, and even a Big C supermarket for everyday needs. There are also plenty of cozy coffee spots to relax and people-watch. But the highlight for me is definitely the food court area — an inviting space featuring delicious local cuisine and seats around a lovely koi pond. It’s such a calm, relaxing corner to enjoy authentic Thai food in a beautiful setting. Bluport truly captures the spirit of Hua Hin — relaxed, elegant, and full of charm. Highly recommended! ❤️
A stylish and well-designed mall in Hua Hin with a clean, welcoming atmosphere. The layout is cute and modern, making it enjoyable to walk around. Prices tend to be about ฿50–฿100 higher than what you’d typically find in Bangkok, but the convenience and setting make up for it. The mall has three floors and two food courts, offering a good mix of shopping and dining options. Overall, a pleasant place to shop, eat, or simply spend time indoors in Hua Hin.

Slide 1 of 8
Very beautiful cave. Highly recommend a visit. You can either go by car or by boat. If you take the boat you skip the initial 500 hike which is quite steep. If you arrive by car there is plenty of parking space and vendors that sell water. Make sure you bring enough water! Second part of the hike is uphill quite steep but doable. You will be rewarded with great views at the end of the trail. Stunning views of the sun shining through the cave ceiling. Well worth a visit. There are toilets and restaurants on the beach at the base of the climb
This is one of the "must" sites to see along the upper gulf coast. Although you may have to really earn it. We went on October 22nd which was a nice hot day after quit a few wet ones. The boats would not run in the stormy seas so you will have to hike the first leg by the park entrance. Fee is 200 for foreigner, 100 for Thai. The hike can be strenuous if either physically limited, or have any ailments. After the first "up to the viewpoint" and down the backside you come up to the beach. A nice secluded shell filled beach that leads you to the one again strenuous (only because the humidity helps the sweat pour out) hike up towards the cave. The well maked path takes to the first cave system once the jagged limestone path levels off. Then down through a cave opening to the grand entrance of Phraya Nakhon Cave. The lighting causes for a very dramatic backdrop to the shine. Quite spectacular. And the temperature in quite nice dropping at least 8 to 10 degrees Celsius lower than the outside temperature. On a Wednesday it wasn't really crowded and with patience can have the whole place to yourself for the perfect photo opp.
Amazing spot nice views, to have the best light come 10.30 till 12.00. athe light on the temple is only in February. There are two mountains to be crossed. You need to be fit, children can do it as well. Ways down and up are with stones. The first mountain can be down by boat if the waves are not to high, u arrive rhen directly on the beach and miss the views from the first mountain. At the beach there is a good restaurant with good drinks and they toilettes. From there u can start the second mountain when u made it, there is only ashort way down tonrhe cave entry. At the beginning u can see monkeys Dusty at the second climb or on rhe beach. The cave is amazing we had a very food toir guide she showed is perfect spots for photos.
Stunning drive through the National Park, then a challenging walk to the cave. Spectacular scenery and wildlife on the walk. The cave itself is breathtaking, well worth the walk. I rode a motorbike from Hua Hin, took 1 hour, but amazing mountain's 👏.
First of all, this cave is part of the Khao Sam Roi You national park. I recommend starting your day at the national park's ticket office. The ticket you buy here is valid for more than one attractions. I started my day with the mangrove forest around the ticket office area, then visited the Khao Daeng Viewpoint, after this Klong Khao Daeng (the boat trip price is not included in the ticket) and my last stop was Phraya Nakhon cave. I was riding a motorbike between the places. The cave can be reached by boats or walking. The motorboats are very loud and I prefer walking anyway so I hiked to the cave. Please note that it is a 2km distance. The first part of the road follows the sea shore, with wonderful views. It goes uphill first and then down to the beach. It is a bit rocky and you will definitely sweat a bit climbing here. Through the beach, you walk on flat surface among trees and sand, it is very pleasant (apart from the loud boats arriving every minute). Someone put swings on trees next to the beach, you may take nice photos here. There are also cafes and restaurant, bathrooms here to refresh if needed. The next part of the road takes you through a small forest part - apply mosquito repellent here if you haven't done it yet, they attack straight away! At the end of the forest road, you will see a big sign with many rules (how to dress, behave and so on) and a warning to understand your physical capabilities or limitations - because the next part of the road is very challenging. From now on, the road is mainly uphill on the natural terrain which has some steps built but it is mainly rocky and steep, sometimes a bit slippery. In the hot weather, it's not easy to complete the climb. Halfway up on the hill, you will find a resting stop with benches. The park also stations a first aid team here, which is reassuring. They are on standby for any emergencies or injuries. Also they sell (expensive) water. After climbing for about 500 meters, the last part of the road is finally downhill, believe me, you'll be grateful for that 😁 Please make sure you are dressed modestly to respect the Buddhist principles before entering the cave. The entrance is already impressive. I haven't seen a forest growing in a cave yet. The temple is in the second hall of the cave and if you are lucky, the sunshine will illuminate it. When I was there, I could admire it completely alone (low season) and it was a wonderful experience.
Parking: 10B motorcycle, 20B car Entrance to national park: 100B foreigner, 40B Thai Hike to Phraya Nakhon Cave: 1. 515m along the coast, up and down to reach Laem Sala beach 2. Around 1km flat along the beach. There's a restaurant. 3. 430m mostly up through the forest to the cave entrance. The path is shaded, mostly dirt, sharp rocks and makeshift steps. Physically demanding but very rewarding. Water can be bought at the entrance. Closed shoes recommended.
It's a cave. Steep. A wall runs along the path which is sometimes better. I'm fit. Still took me an hour . Take water . Round a big hill. Then down a cave system. Through 2 chambers into a 3rd which had the temple . 200 baht for adults 100 for kids. . Well worth it.
Wonderful sight to behold. The way there comprises 2 climbs with a walk along a beach in between. The climbs are treacherous but I saw many out of shape people and a few with difficulty in walking also doing it. Along the first climb, you'll be treated to magnificent views of the sea and beach. When you finally reach the cave, it's a spectacle to marvel. They've built a shrine in the cave and there are more things to explore once inside the cave. It's definitely worth the effort. This is something not to be missed.

It's an adorable selection of shops set around a pond. I was there during low season so it was really empty. Which for me was nice because easy to shop, no people. It's pretty far out there so I would hire a driver for the day or go with a tour group. Would be a good stop before or after some other site as it's food stalls and shops. Don't take a Grab, Bolt or taxi out unless you've secured them for the day. You can't get one back to town and have to barter your way onto a tourbus to get home or hitchhike. Ask me how I know.
Definitely worth a visit! Yes you have to pay to get in but it’s a lovely place. Almost all shops and stalls open with a variety of products and lots of different foods to choose from. Our young daughters had a great time looking at everything. There’s a show on boats, karaoke, a mini train, animals and fish feeding. We spent about 3+ hours here and had a great time. It was quiet when we arrived around 10:30 but got busier later on.
Hua Hin Floating Market, Sam Phan Nam, is a spacious floating market with many activities to do, including boat rides and train rides around the market. There are few things for sale, and some shops are closed. It was very quiet on a weekday, and there is plenty of parking space for cars.
Maybe it would be better going at the weekend. I visited on a Monday morning and the place was very quiet with most of the stalls/shops closed. You can do a complete circuit of the walk along the boardwalks and this makes for an attractive stroll. The foreigner entrance fee is 200 Baht and includes either a trip on a boat or the mini train. I would recommend using the boat, you don't really see much using the train because it runs Behind all the little shops that face onto the lake.
A charming local market with an authentic atmosphere and very reasonable prices. We visited during the off-season and in rainy weather, so unfortunately we were unable to take the train ride — something I would certainly look forward to on a future visit. The local people were exceptionally welcoming, and I even had the unexpected pleasure of joining them in a karaoke session. I also had the chance to enjoy mango sticky rice — a truly delightful treat
it's very quiet and many of the small shops/huts are empty which is a shame. In typical Thai tradition everything was rushed to get it finished and ready for opening. I went on the opening day now about 10 months later it looks the same, not well maintained. However, it's still a nice place to go for a stroll around and the prices are pretty good overall. I can recommend a place there to eat, see my attached photo but they all look good. If more money was invested and critically more promoting, it could be a great place to go rather than an ok place.
This floating market is a delightful gem that combines the charm of a traditional Thai market with a picturesque waterside setting, making it a must-visit in Hua Hin. I arrived around 10 AM, and the market was notably quiet, offering a serene and relaxed vibe—ideal for those who enjoy a calmer experience away from the usual tourist bustle. Tourists should note the 200 Baht entrance fee, which includes a scenic boat ride. This ride is a highlight, allowing you to glide along the waterways and take in the market’s vibrant surroundings from a unique perspective. The market is thoughtfully designed, with a clean, well-organized layout that makes exploring a breeze. Adding to its appeal, the entire place is a photographer’s dream, with countless photospots at every turn. From colorful wooden bridges and rustic boats bobbing on the water to charming shopfronts adorned with traditional Thai decor, there’s no shortage of Instagram-worthy backdrops. The lush greenery and vibrant market stalls also make for stunning shots, especially during the golden morning light. That said, when I visited, many shops were still closed, which slightly dampened the experience. However, the shops that were open offered an impressive array of goods, including clothing, accessories, and unique souvenirs, all at incredibly affordable prices compared to Bangkok. The deals here are unbeatable, making it a fantastic spot for budget-conscious shoppers looking for quality finds. Overall, Hua Hin Samphannam Floating Market is absolutely worth a visit, especially for its photogenic charm and budget-friendly offerings. With endless photospots to capture the vibrant Thai culture and serene waterways, it’s a paradise for photography enthusiasts. To make the most of your visit, consider arriving later in the day when more shops are likely to be open. This market is a perfect blend of cultural immersion, scenic beauty, and great deals, making it a standout destination in Hua Hin!
Hua Hin Sam Phan Nam Floating Market We visited during the Mother’s Day long weekend in 2025 and found the atmosphere surprisingly quiet with very few visitors. Parking was plentiful and easy to find, but many shops were closed and the number of activities was quite limited. The entrance fee is 40 THB per person, which felt not very worthwhile considering the overall experience. Overall, it wasn’t particularly impressive. This spot might be fine for a short stroll, but it’s not something I would recommend as a main destination for your trip.
