Top Things to do in Hua Hin
Top 10 Things to do in Hua Hin, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province
A favorite getaway for Bangkok residents, Hua Hin is a pretty beachside town. Family friendly and relaxed, it lacks the all-night partying and seedier aspects that make other nearby beach resorts a haven for unsavory characters. Once a small fishing village, it was transformed into a royal resort, and it’s these close links with Thai royalty that ensure Hua Hin won’t become overdeveloped or lose its small-town vibe.

A nice place to spend the evenings where you can browse the arts and crafts, sit in the open air and listen to live music, you have a great choice of food, the Cicada market though is only open at the weekends and can be very busy if you a going by car.

As from 1st October 2017 we are proud to announce that trekking will no longer be offered at Hutsadin, instead we offer our visitors a range of activities that promote a close interaction with our elephants. In a safe environment for both elephant and visitor. Here you can take a bareback ride, walk with an elephant, shower and feed them or simply visit us. We also offer educational talks 3 days a week and a 3 hour mahout experience is available twice a week. Check out our website activities page where you will find full descriptions of the activities that we offer along with costs.

We chose to visit the elephant foundation based on good reviews on trip advisor and we were not disappointed. The sanctuary has 6 elephants all with sad but interesting stories of how they came to be in the sanctuary. It is obvious all the elephants are well loved and cared for by their mahouts and the volunteers at the centre. We chose to do the elephant walk where you go on a walk with one of the elephants and their mahout and also the volunteer who tells you the individual elephant’s story, about their personality and you have a basket of fruit to feed your elephant as you walk alongside it. You then get to shower the elephant on return from the walk. It was up close and personal and extremely interesting. On a previous visit to Thailand we did an elephant basket ride but they do not offer this at the foundation due to the discomfort and stress it can cause the elephant and which I wouldn’t ever do again based on the experience with the elephants and information we received on our visit. You can do a bareback ride on the elephant at Hutsadin but we chose not to and instead loved our elephant walking experience.

Come to here almost everyday in our 10-day vacation in Hua Hin! We like Bluport a lot more than Market Village - newly built, very organized, nicely decorated, good brands, tremendous choices of restaurants, eateries and kiosks and the awesome supermarket. As the mall is decorated under the theme of port, we see a lot of greens, ponds, rivers, yachts and benches. Even toilet is decorated under different port elements, which give you a relaxing pleasure when you are busy with the call of nature. The Gourmet Market is a terrific where reasonably priced high quality groceries and souvenirs are available. Absolutely a 5-star shopping center to visit! Don’t miss it! Tips: if you purchase merchandise worth more than Bahts 2000, the cashier can process tax refund paper immediately if you can provide the passport document. Though the actual cash refund is still being done in airport, it saves you a lot of processing time in the airport. Therefore, don’t forget to bring your passport!

Hua Hin Beach. The beach from our hotel the Centers Beach Resort was easily accessible. There are long flat stretches of amazing sand in both directions. The sea was calm and warm which made paddling delightful. Food and drink was availablel at beach cafes. Horses replace donkeys for those who prefer to ride rather than walk. The beach was never crowded even at weekends during our stay and is popular with Kite Surfers.

10. Market Village HuaHin

Market Village Hua Hin is the largest shopping complex in one of Thailand’s most popular tourist destinations. The sleepy seaside town of Hua Hin offers a variety of natural and cultural attractions, abundant outdoor activities and superb fresh seafood, but the area are did not have a deluxe shopping mall and entertainment complex until the opening of Market Village Hua Hin in 2006.

This nice mall is located within 5min walk from my hotel. There is a pedestrian bridge that reaches there. The mall reminds me of a typical mall in suburban Melbourne. Quite westernize and many food choices and stalls, nice book stall, basement has many sports wear shops and souvenir shops. The food stalls serves nice takeout food and well maintained. Must visit
