Just two hours outside of Bangkok, Cha-Am (see
map Cha-Am) is often by-passed by travellers on the way to neighbouring
Hua Hin, its slightly busier twin town. But this once small fishing village
has long been a popular weekend getaway for well-heeled Thai families and
city-dwellers who come to bask in its tranquility. As a beachside resort,
Cha-Am is more than equal to its overly crowded counterparts, boasting the
longest stretch of white sandy beach in Thailand. Those in the know will
also testify to the fabulous array of seafood restaurants that line the
beach - one of the best ways to experience Cha-Am while savouring the
glorious sea view.
Life here may be peaceful but it is by no means dull. The town offers the
perfect location from which to explore the area's rich local culture or
embark on active adventures. It lies within the province of Petchaburi,
dotted with a myriad of beautiful Buddhist temples. Its many nearby
attractions include
Marukhathaiyawan Palace (Palace of Love and Hope), the picturesque
Khao
Luang Cave, and
Kaeng Krachan National Park, Thailand's largest national park (see
map of Kaeng Krachan National Park). A 25-minute drive will also take
you to world-class golfing at
Black
Mountain Golf and Country Club. Or you can simply relax on the beach and
enjoy the many water sports out at sea.
