HUA HIN & CHA-AM
Less than four hours by road or rail from Bangkok,Hua Hin with its 3 kms long white sand beach and small fishing village has long had an air of exclusivity thanks to favouritism by Thai royalty and Bangkok's wealthy elite.
The area retains more of a thai family ambience than other touristy destinations.
The weekend getaway of Cha-am is a lovely long strech of beach that has become popular with youthful groups of Bangkokians.
Around 40 Kms from Petchaburi, the resort is extremely peaceful during weekdays, with plenty of delicious seafood to choose from.
