Info  in Takiab Beach

 
Info

The twin hills of Khao Takiab (Chopstick Peaks) are visible to the south down the beach from Hua Hin and one can also make out the 20 meter tall Buddha image at the base of the hills. The walk along the beach is guaranteed to test your ankles.From the temple (Wat Khao Lad) atop the hill, Singhtoh Island, about 800 meters offshore can be seen and boats to the island can be chartered from either the Hua Hin pier or the small fishing village at Khao Takiab. Be careful of the monkeys wandering the lower grounds of the temple. They're not fierce but enjoy grabbing eyeglasses, pens, and mobiles.


The Khao Takiab area now boasts an increasing number of guesthouses, small hotels, resorts and quiet restaurants.

The beach at Khao Takiab is actually better behind the hill at Blue Wave where there are big expanses of beach and calm shallow waters ideal for children. Locals sometimes play football, volleyball and takraw on the wide flat sands of Khao Takiap beach.
