Hua Hin Sam Phan Nam Floating Market, one of Hua Hin’s newer attractions, has reopened following upgrades aimed at enhancing the visitor experience. The market, located in Thap Tai about 15 kilometres from the city centre, resumed operations in November 2024.
Spread across more than 100 rai (40 acres), the market now features improved facilities, expanded shopping areas, and activities for both Thai and international visitors. It is divided into three main zones: a souvenir section, a clothing area offering traditional Thai fabrics, and a food section serving local dishes and products unique to Hua Hin.
Shopping zones, food stalls and activities
The market’s design blends Balinese and Thai influences, with scenic areas created for photography.
Visitors can take part in optional activities for a small fee, such as a 20-baht train ride around the site, a 40-baht boat trip, or swan boat rentals for 100 baht. Other attractions include dressing in traditional Thai clothing for photos and trying cork gun shooting.
Entry to the market is free, and it is open daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Updates and promotions are available on the market’s Facebook page.
