Located 2.5 hours south of Bangkok, Hua Hin and Cha Am are two quiet family oriented resorts. Hua Hin, once a tranquil fishing village, became the choice of Thai Royalty and this put the resort on the map. The beach here extends for 5 kilometres/3 miles. Facilities here consist of hotels, spas, shops, restaurants and golf courses as well as various watersports. Nearby are national parks offering the visitor natural beauty with their peaks, caves and waterfalls. Down the road from Hua Hin is Cha Am, another beach resort but quieter. Apart form a very attractive beach, there are a number of interesting Buddha temples.
