Day 3 in Chanthaburi was all about slowing down and enjoying the peaceful side of Thailand at Chaolao Beach. We stayed at Sand Dunes Chaolao Beach Resort, a beautiful beachfront resort known for its modern rooms, large swimming pool, and direct beach access. The day was spent relaxing, exploring the beach, enjoying resort life, and taking in the calm atmosphere of Thailand’s eastern coastline.
Phetchaburi to Bangkok Motorbike Trip approx 200 KM
Today morning we checkout from the Sea Sky Beach Resort, Phetchaburi for Bangkok.
The return journey always feels different. Riding back from Phetchaburi to Bangkok on a motorbike wasn’t just about covering distance—it was about slowing down, reflecting on the ride, and gradually moving from quiet coastal roads back into the energy of the city.
A warm get-together filled with laughter, good conversations, and a lovely dinner with family visiting Bangkok.
In July 2023, I embarked on a memorable journey to Khun Dan Prakan Chon Dam in Nakhon Nayok, Thailand. Our day began early, waking at 6:30 am to reach the dam by 7:30 am. We purchased tickets for a two-hour long-tailed boat tour, priced at 200 THB per person.
I took a trip to Khun Dan Prakan Chon Dam, one of the most popular attractions in Nakhon Nayok. Surrounded by mountains and greenery, the dam offered beautiful scenic views and a peaceful escape just a few hours from Bangkok.
The dam, a massive contemporary concrete structure, offers sweeping views and is a testament to modern engineering. Visitors can walk across it to fully appreciate its grandeur.
Our boat trip included two 40-minute stopovers, allowing us to explore the serene surroundings and immerse ourselves in the natural beauty of the area.
