Hua hin beach has been called a favorite for the thai people, though I feel that it may have changed from what it was over the last few years. The beach is nice, and in mid july it was practicaly deserted other than a handfull of locals looking for shelled creatures and looking after their small wooden fishing boats. I think i saw only one other tourist the entire time i was there. The place i was staying in was slightly to the north of the main town though. I'm sure the beach near the main town is also nice and comparitevly empty, but the town itself was underwhelming and In my opinion detracted from the quality of the beach. It was bussy with small shopping centers and touristy market stalls just like everywhere else but with no unique redeeming features. Overall I guess there is nothing wrong with the town, but it just felt soulless....though with the one exeption of a small buddist monistary on a rock in the south that i nearly forgot about. That was quite nice to look at.
