Hua Hin Fishing, Sailing and Boating

Sea Fishing
A number of years ago the only way to get out sea fishing would be to hire a local to take you. Now a number or tour operators organize boat and fishing trips from Hua Hin, where you can catch and keep your fish, there are also a few that do evening squid fishing excursions. Rods and equipment comes included and you're likely to catch bass, snapper, squid and the odd ray.

Fore more information on boat and fishing trips see Mermaid Cruises

Freshwater Fishing
A new freshwater fishing lodge has opened just a few kilometers west of Hua Hin, it has two large, very deep ponds that are home to a varietly of popular freshwater fish including Siamese carp, pacu and some rather large catfish. Tackle and bait are available for hire and there will soon be a restaurant and accommodation.

Sailing and Boating
There has been talk about the formation of a Hua Hin sailing club but as yet nothing has materialised. The nearest marina is in Paknampran, around 28km south of Hua Hin, the local Hua Hin fishing peir only allows local fishing vessels to berth, it is also too shallow to support anything larger. As mentioned above a number of tour operators now offer boating excursions and charters around Hua Hin and further south.
