Enjoying the Summer Season in Bangkok

Summer is the best time to travel to Bangkok because it is when many ticketing agencies and companies offer a lot of promo fares to Bangkok. Online, it is easy to buy tickets to a spectacular vacation.

However, the typical question which many find quite difficult to answer is where to go to enjoy the trip? While some content themselves with plain sightseeing, shopping and culinary adventures, most people make sure that they get to experience the tropical beaches.


The problem is there is no beach resort within Bangkok City. However, that is not a problem because paradise is never too far away from people who wish to experience how a Thai summer should be.


Pattaya Beach is basically the closest beach to the city. It is just a short 2-hour drive away from the capital, making it one of the most famous summer destinations of all time. Its close proximity to Bangkok makes it the perfect choice for many who wish to enjoy a quick getaway from the stifling urban. Because of this reason, it is safe to expect that the Pattaya Beach could be really crowded, especially during peak seasons. Nonetheless, efforts to provide the best attention to the needs and demands of the people are exerted. The area is densely commercialized, offering people with Pattaya hotels, dining venues and other entertainment hubs.


Four hours away from the city is the popular Hua Hin Beach. Compared to Pattaya, it has lesser crowd; but that doesn’t mean it couldn’t get crowded. From Bangkok, it would only take three hours by train from Hua Lumpong Station to get to this paradise. Hua Hin Beach boasts of soft bed of sand and turquoise blue ocean water " something typical among the beaches in Thailand. But the catch in this place is it is surrounded with natural attractions, providing vacationers with more opportunities other than swimming. Commercial establishments are abundant in the place too.


Koh Samui is another prestigious destination that would allow people to enjoy Thai summer at its best. Home to spectacular beaches that flaunt soft beds of white sand that runs parallel to the cool blue ocean water, Koh Samui is definitely world-renowned. From Bangkok, people should buy cheap tickets for plane rides to the island. From there, greater excitement begins.


From Koh Samui, it would just take another few minutes of boat ride to get to another famous summer hub, Koh Phangan in Surat Thani. It is quite far from Bangkok, considering the modes of transportation to be used; but a visit would surely be worth it. People come here particularly for the Full Moon Party which shames all other parties in town. It is an all-night experience of dancing, drinking and mingling with people who just want to have fun with their lives!


Basically, these are just some of the best beaches in Thailand that can be easily reached from Bangkok. To explore the others, it is best to travel to the city " to other parts of the country " during the summer season.
