What to do entirely free in Hua Hin: Watch the sunset at the beach

 As long as you can get up early enough, depending on season and distance to the beach around 4:30-5:00, then i absolutely recommend watching the sunset at the beach:

• Many locations are suitable to watch the sunset
• We recommended our favourite spot because there is plenty of space to sit on the stone cay rather than on the sand
• That makes the location also suitable to take great pictures, have a picnic without much preparation or enjoy evening drinks at sundown
• But note that due to it's location on the Gulf of Thailand you will only see the sunset in the morning, not the sundown in the evening. But still evening atmosphere is also nice
• If you're into Photography or videoshooting this place is a dream and entirely free

Our recommendation where to watch the sunset at Hua Hin beach

Just off Hua Hin's main road is Soi 5: Please note that while google maps indicates there would be a cocktail bar at this place, currently there is not establishment at all. So be sure to grab your food and drinks at a 7-Eleven conveniently located everywhere along the main road before heading here.

Stunning sunset at Hua Hin Beach.

Local fishermen are up early, looking for a catch of fresh fish. Also look at the timelapse video above to see them buzzing around.

View from Hua Hin towards the south.

The sun will set about straight in front of the spot in case you want to get there early during darkness and setup your photo equipment or videocamera.

This pictures was taken during rainy season so there are clouds creating an extra special atmosphere. But no matter what season, morning rain is unlikely.

As Hua Hin starts to come to love the colors change from a red to yellow.

The spectable last about 30 minutes till the sun has fully set.

Local businessmen get ready with their horses. They are riding on the beach to various more popular locations where horseriding is offered to visitors.

Plenty of space to set on the cay and watch the sunset at Hua Hin beach.

During low tide there is some beach you can walk on but i would recommend this place for swimming due to many rocks / shells in the water as well as not to disturb the fishermen.

Just next to this spot on Soi 5 is the Moevenpick resort Hua Hin - a lovely place if you fell in love with the views - but again almost any location will have similar views of the sunset.
