Laem Sing Beach is a peaceful and quiet beach located near Chanthaburi city, Thailand, approximately 20 km away from the Chanthaburi bus terminal. It is known for its natural beauty, particularly on sunny days, and its proximity to the mouth of the Chanthaburi river. However, this location also means that the water can be cloudy with silt, making it less suitable for swimming.
The beach is broad and clean, with big trees providing fresh air and shade, making it a nice area for picnics. There are also several amenities available for visitors. Vendors offer a variety of food and drink options, including spicy papaya salad and ice cream. There are also accommodations available on the beach road, some of which offer sea view rooms.
For those looking for more than just the beach, there is a park just off the beach for when the beach gets too hot. There are also shops that offer toilets and showers for a small fee. Parking is available, but the main beach road is rather small, so finding a parking spot can sometimes be a challenge.
Every Saturday evening, a walking street is set up, providing a unique experience for visitors. Despite these attractions, the beach is not typically crowded, making it a good place to relax and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.
Nearby, the island of Ko Chula features Lion Rock at its southern tip, adding to the scenic beauty of the area. However, the water quality can vary, potentially due to weather conditions, as it may not look as clean on stormy days.
