If you go just south from the center of Hua Hin you will find the beach close to Khao Takiab such as the Hyatta Regency, Supatra Resort and Kaban Tamor. The large Golden Buddha of Khao Takiab looks out across the Gulf of Thailand and can be seen from far out at sea. This is an amazing temple, watch out for the hungry monkeys through! Just around the corner from Khao Takiab is the Khao Takiab Beach and Takiab Bay itself. This beach is probably more than 4 km long. There are just a few places to stay like the Bluewave and the Takiab Beach but there are vacation rentals, holiday homes, guesthouses and budget places. Local Thai eateries on the beach. Here you can Ride and Elephant, take a boat trip to Lion island, go fishing or just wander and relax on the beach. The working fishing village of Khao Takiab is fascinating. The hills behind Takiab Bay have temples all over the hillside, it is steep but worth the effort, this is an amazing place to get away from it all.
