Phraya Nakhon Cave

During your visit to the Phraya Nakhon Cave, climbing to the top is something you need to put efforts into. Although it may appear tiresome in the beginning, we promise you the scenic view from the top of the cave will definitely make up for it, soaking away all your tiredness at once. Your journey to the mystic view of the Cave will begin at the village Bang Pu. Situated close to the Laem Sala Beach, you may either rent a boat to reach the cave or opt for a thirty minute trek also leading to the very same beach. At this point of the journey, you ought to decide between a comfortable ferry ride (costing 150 to 200 baht) through the waters or a trek across a 430 meters high hill.

While the trek will pass through dense and lush green forests, the ferry ride will be fun as well, especially with the waters flowing smoothly beneath the oars. Whatever option you choose to reach the Phraya Nakhon Cave, the view moving past your eyes will be awesome for sure! Once you reach the Laem Sala Beach, you can easily observe the rocky path leading up to the cave. We would like to advise you to be careful while moving up the steps since the path is uneven throughout.

The Phraya Nakhon Cave is situated inside the boundaries of Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park. The Bang Pu village, from where your journey to the cave will begin, is situated at 45 minutes’ drive from Hua Hin. The most appropriate way to reach the Phraya Nakhon Cave is to travel via road to the Bang Pu village. For this, you may either hire a taxi or rent a vehicle. From the village, it is up to your choice whether to reach the cave by boat or on foot.
