Travel options to the seaside resort of Hua Hin

Hua Hin is a seaside resort about 200kms away from Bangkok by road. It is noted for its sweeping stretches of golden sands, access to championship golf courses, gourmet restaurants and chilled out nightlife venues. 

Despite the suspension of SGA operated shuttle flights from Bangkok to Hua Hin Airport, it is easily reached by road or rail. Hua Hin’s beautiful timber station is a stop on the main southern train line south from Hualamphong Station in Bangkok to Hat Yai, Padang Besar and Butterworth in Malaysia. 

There are 10 trains a day in each direction which call at Hua Hin. They range in standard between a basic third-class diesel railcar and the air-conditioned sleeper trains to Malaysia. Journey times are around the four-hour mark from Bangkok.

The majority of buses from Bangkok to Hua Hin and the south depart from the capital’s Southern Bus Terminal (in Thai - Sai Tai Mai) on Borommaratchachonnani Road. Buses depart at regular intervals from both stations with the first service at 04:00 and the last at 21:00. Buses with a blue-and-white livery offer premium service with air-conditioning, hostesses, free water and snacks.
