Pranburi and Paknampran
Situated some 30km south of Hua Hin, Pranburi and Paknampran are fast becoming tourist destinations in their own right. For many years, they were not so favoured, either with locals or tourists, as most people stayed in Hua Hin or Ch-am.
However, Pranburi and Paknampran are now becoming popular and as a result there are a number of hotels and resorts that have sprung up in the area and more are being developed.
The beach here is not one of the area’s best, but it is passable and what attracts most people is its peace and privacy.
Attractions
The national park of Khao Sam Roi Yot is located in the vicinity and should be seen if you are staying in Pranburi, or even Hua Hin. Hua Hin’s fishing fleet moved to Paknampran a number of years ago and a visit to see it and the accompanying hustle and bustle is definitely worthwhile. Pranburi Forest Park covers a large area and has a peaceful pine-fringed beach and mangrove nature trails.
Eco tours are available down the Pranburi river and into the mangrove plantations.
