Hua Hin is fast becoming a very popular holiday destination. It is popular with families and couples alike.

Hua Hin is a coastal resort on the East side of the Western peninsula of Thailand. It is a lot quieter than Pattaya and yet offers a similar amount of things to do.

The water at Hua Hin is much cleaner than Pattaya and the shore line of most of the beach is very shallow and it's possible to walk out a hundred yards or so and still be waist deep. This makes it very safe for children and poor swimmers but caution is always adviseable.

There are plenty of quality hotels in Hua Hin as well as a number of smaller, quality boutique hotels with 10 rooms or so. if you are looking for a laid back pace of life and yet with some western conveniences, then look no further than Hua Hin which is only about 2 hours drive from the capital bangkok.
