Pranburi is a low key destination 220 km to the south of Bangkok and 30 km to the south of the better known town of Hua Hin. Pranburi is a quieter destination with a good beach and relatively undeveloped town behind it, which is growing in appeal with visitors from Bangkok and foreign visitors looking to stay somewhere less busy with tourists and with more authentic local culture than many of the more developed holiday destinations.

Pranburi has three parts. Firstly, the town of Pranburi is located on the Phetchkasem Highway, which the main road leading from Bangkok south toward Surat Thani Province. The town, which isn’t particularly picturesque, is the only part of Pranburi that most people ever see. The second part of Pranburi is located on the Pranburi River between the main road and the coast. This area has a much older village with old fashioned Thai wooden bungalows and a weekend market which local claim has been running for around 200 years. The third part of Pranburi is the fishing village of Pak Nam Pranburi, running south from which is the 4.5 km long Pranburi Beach.
