Thread: Bangsaen Beach

Last time I went it was nice but now & again like to frequent the odd bar but sadly lacking maybe has changed by now

There aren't any go-go bars in Bangsaen. But there are lots of bars and restaurant/bars all over but particularly on the road down to the beach and on Beach Road itself. At night lots of Thai-style night-clubs, pubs and coffee shops/meeting places. As it is a university town there are always lots of young people out and about at night. Lots of parties in Bangsaen!
At weekends laods of Bangkok people (and on long week-ends it seems the whole of Bangkok) descend on Bangsaen to party, so in some of the clubs and bars it is standing room only and in the 'theques it is breathing room only. We don't go out on weekends.

I think the place catches a bad current in the gulf that washes all the shit from the Chao Phraya river down the beach. Eeuuucck!
It must keep the locals employed collecting plastic bags, used condoms and the like.

Sit by the Beach have a beer ok......
But Eat the seafood...?????
where you think that squid comes from ??? Eeuuuucck....

Will have to check it out when back there. So many places so little time

For really great seafood, follow Beach Road around the spit and up a little bit north to the pier with a bunch of fishing boats put in there. Incredible, fresh seafood at the restaurant just off the pier. I think the restaurant's name is Rim Talae, but I won't swear to that.
