Highly Hua Hin

Spend anytime in Hua Hin and you’ll realise that, apart from the beach and the spas, the real reason so many people flock to the city is the great golfing it offers. Hua Hin has not one, nor two, but eight world-class golf courses, all open to the public (for a small greens fee, naturally). The oldest is the nine-hole Royal Hua Hin Golf Course, located very centrally behind the station (+66 (0) 3251 2475). If you want something newer and with three times the holes, head to the Springfield Royal Country Club (+66 3247 1303). Their Jack Niklaus-designed par 72 course is a favourite among pros and passionate amateurs alike.
