Cha-am Beach is renowned for being the best beach in Phetchaburi. Cha-am’s fame was established when it’s neighbour Hua Hin became a royal resort and members of the royal family commented that Cha-am was just as beautiful. As a result, Cha-am
has become a firm favourite with weekend visitors from Bangkok, and is
becoming increasingly popular with international visitors keen on
experiencing a genuinely Thai resort town. There’s a complete absence of
bars along the beach – local bylaws won’t permit them. There are though
numerous hotels and restaurants dotted about the 3 kilometre long beach
and it’ easy to pick up a place to rest in a deckchair under an
umbrella. You can get a donkey ride if you want one and it is possible
to rent bicycles to explore the area. There are also herds of food
stalls selling excellent snacks. Cha-am is remarkable in that it is unremarkable – this is a pleasant beach with green water – and that’s about it. Cha-am is not ‘in your face’ and that can make a genuine change and probably what is making it more attractive to foreigners.
