Hua Hin Beach Night Market Shopping

Hua Hin is a famous beach resort town in Thailand, and Thailand's oldest beach town resort, situated on the west coast of the Gulf of Thailand and only 200 kilometers from the capital, Bangkok.

While the beaches of Phuket and Samui were discovered only recently and have since undergone rapid and sometimes destructive development, Hua Hin has already been the favourite Thai resort for over 70 years.

Hua Hin is unlike most other beach resorts in Thailand. If you are looking for bright lights and frantic all night action you will be disappointed there. It is very much a family holiday resort area with good shopping and multi-national restaurants including, of course, the best Thai seafood the country has to offer. Idweal Thailand summer holiday beach destination.

The main beach area fronts the town itself where many fine resorts are found. Beaches to the north and south . The beaches at Khao Takiab (Chopsticks Hill) and Takiab Bay (Chopsticks Bay) are just to the south of the town centre.

Hua Hin beaches stretch along the coast both north and south. For out door fun and adventure you can enjoy watersports, Elephant rides, All terrain Vehicle rides, fishing and boat trips. Khao Takiab Bay is a popular beaches with clear clean water and gentle waves, beach loungers and beach umbrellas for shade. Palm trees and Casuarana trees line the long beach at Takiab Bay. These beach areas are also popular for jogging and beach cycling.

The area also offers the opportunity to visit the temples of Khao Takiab, feed the monkeys, climb to the viewpoint. The Khao Takiab area has many temples includes many built many years ago. Snorkeling is available a few hours south . The River Kwai is just 3 hours from Hua Hin . The National Park at Sam Roi Yot (Three Hundred Peaks) is just 30 minutes south of town.

Hua Hin Nightlife
Hua Hin's nightlife offers little in the way of comparison to the hedonistic areas of Phuket, Bangkok and Pattaya. Due to its status as a 'Royal Town' tourism authorities have been making a conscious effort to preserve the heritage of the city.

Hua Hin has one or two soi's dedicated to Bars. Go to the Hilton and walk away from sea. Again there are too many to mention but one or two worth a visit are Jungle Juice (Selakam Rd), Bernys Inn (near the Hilton) a popular Golfers bar, Adrenaline Bar in the Pavillion village Hua Hin offers, beers, wines and cocktails and a happy hour every day from 5pm to 7pm. Lastly a popular favourite with expats and Golfers is the Roadhole on Poolsuk Rd.

There are two night markets in Hua Hin. The main night market is on soi 72 and is open nightly. The second is close to the Grang hotel just south of Hua Hin and is open every evening except Mondays and Tuesdays. The latter has a more local feel.


Hua Hin Nite Life Bars
If you are looking for good night life, I am afraid that Hua Hin is not the place for you. The picture at right says it all, outdoor beer bars with lots of male tourists and very few girls. The girls that they do have are not that appealing, they do not compare to the girls in Bangkok or Pattaya, overall the bar scene here is fairly pathetic. All of the bars are located near the Soi Bintabat area, on a map it looks spread out, but the sois are really little more than lanes, so everything in town is within easy walking distance. All of the bars in this area are "outside" style beer bars that are open air and do not have any real air conditioning.


Hua Hin Beer Bars
While nowhere near as widespread as in say, Pattaya, a generous smattering of beer bars can be found in Hua Hin, mainly around main strip Soi Bintaban. Don’t expect to be wowed by these unadorned drinking holes – they’re typically little more than open front shop houses with a few bar stools, a pool table, and a small arsenal of cheap alcohol.

Very basic and bare. However, if you’re open-minded they can be a lot of fun – drink, play pool, watch sports, enjoy loud music (usually soft rock or Northeastern Isaan music) and exchange chitchat or – if you’re willing and able – flirtations with the small posse of female hostesses.
