Night Markets in Hua Hin
Part of the Hua Hin travel guide — see every topic in All Hua Hin Guides.
Night markets are the heart of a Hua Hin evening. Come hungry, bring cash in small notes and arrive around 18:00, before the crowds.
Cicada Market
Cicada Market, on Soi Hua Hin 75/1 south of the town centre, is an art and design market with handmade clothes, crafts, paintings and live shows in a small open-air theatre. It opens on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings from about 16:00 to 23:00, closing earlier on Sundays.
Tamarind Market
Tamarind Market, next to Cicada, is mostly food: grilled seafood, Thai curries, craft beer and desserts at long tables under the trees, with live music. It opens from about Thursday to Sunday evenings, and most dishes cost about THB 60–200.
Hua Hin Night Market
The Hua Hin Night Market (Chatchai Night Market) runs every evening on Dechanuchit Road in the town centre, from about 17:00 to 23:00. Seafood restaurants show crab, prawns and fish on ice; prices are by weight, so ask before you order. Stalls also sell clothes and souvenirs.
Chatchai Market and others
Chatchai Market, in the town centre, is a covered day market and the place for breakfast: try pa thong ko (Thai doughnuts) with soy milk, or rice soup. Plearn Wan, on Phetkasem Road, is a retro-style village of old shophouses, toys and snacks. Bluport and Market Village are air-conditioned malls for rainy afternoons.
