Prachuap Khiri Khan Province

 

General information

Prachuap Khiri Khan is located on the north of Malay Peninsula, where is located about 380 kilometers south away from Bangkok or 100 kilometers south away from Hua Hin. The provincial capital is a fishing port along 251 kms. coastline with a superb location beside beautiful curving bays and amongst steep mountain outcrops. 

Interesting

Although Hua Hin is by far the most famous beach resort in Prachuap Khiri Khan, it by no means exhausts the province's seaside venues. Although nowhere else is quite so well developed in terms of tourism facilities, other spots along the coast offer basic comforts and considerable unspoilt scenic charm.

Immediately south of the provincial capital is Ao Manao, a picturesque bay ringed by a clean white sandy beach, while small offshore islands add further interest. Heading down the coast, the two districts of Thap Sakae and Bang Saphan, while of no special interest in themselves, are the gateways to some good beaches that for the moment remain largely undiscovered. The best spots are Wanakon and Laem Kum Beaches near Thap Sakae, and Sai Kaeo, Ban Krut, Khiriwong, and Ban Nong Mongkhon beaches in the vicinity of Bang Saphan.
