Where can younger expats socialize in Hua Hin?
Hi everyone! 👋
Are there any people in their 20s living in Hua Hin?
I recently moved here, and it feels like there aren’t that many around, except in bars and clubs at night. 😅
If you know of any activities, groups, or places where younger people usually hang out, I’d love to hear your recommendations!

Answer summary
The discussion centers around concerns about the lack of other young expats in Hua Hin, particularly for those in their 20s. Several commenters suggest venues and activities where younger people tend to gather, like Muay Thai gyms and social groups that focus on local communities. Some point out the predominance of older residents, while others suggest exploring local Thai culture as a way to meet younger locals.

they are everywhere in hua hin. most of them thai. i mean is that not why we travel...to meet locals and experience their way of life? more and more, it seems to be an ever-growing divide between expats and locals. it was not always this way, when traveling.

If it s foreigners in their 20s you are looking for there may well be a number of teachers working in schools in the region.

There are plenty of Hua Hin Facebook groups. Ask there. Everyone on here is living in Pattaya or Bangkok and has never been to Hua Hin.

There were 1 or 2 but they left when they heard you were thinking of visiting .

I’ll be there for a bit in 2 weeks. Just in case you wanna play padel or something 🫱🏻🫲🏼

Yes but they're Thai most people in their twenties cannot legally stay in Thailand and live here. They can get short-term visas only.
Neil *******
I didn't see too many, lots of local though

You have to re-define "young". Or do something even more unthinkable and remember that there are a few Thais left in town and they have somewhat wider demographics. But cultural adjustment would be needed. Join a badminton club and you will find the game quite often played, not that standing at the net talking for hours on end thing.
Taki****
Yes loads but you need to communicate in Thai
Elías ********
Not many. I'm 36 y/o, moved 2 years ago and still haven't see anyone on theirs 30s 😂 (not that I'm actively looking).
When I go out I always see either elementary school children or very old people. Nothing in between.
Still, this isn't news about Hua Hin, tho.

If you are old....you are old everywhere. Not just Hua Hin. Just enjoy it. I have tried all the young "party" venues. Nothing helped. I just felt like an old guy trying to yak it up with the grand kids. Now the pressure is off. The whole world is "God's waiting room". Where else can you call a 65 year old man ...a youngster?
Marianne ********
Look around in the Muay Thai gyms.
Seem to be a younger crowd there.

No, Hua Hin is where souls go to die. I said it many times and all these old farangs attack my statement. It is literally dead man walking on every soi.
Sasha ***********
Us Nek at least we have got to live a long life and now enjoying it. You could get hit by a bus next week and not even live long or enjoy retirement you f head!. Be shit funny if it happens.. Karma has a way of making it right.

I am enjoying my early retirement in bkk right now. Made enough money in America where I don't have to worry about anything again. I like to feel alive and live my life in the fast lane. Hua Hin is just a bunch of dead people walking. There is zero life and zero energy. It's just a bunch of zombies.
Chris *********************
Us Nek you enjoying your retirement, so stop picking on the older people, and let everyone else enjoy their retirement, wherever they want. We had this crap from you on here a couple of years ago, now you starting again.
Chris *********************
Us Nek bum boy
Chris *********************
Us Nek piss off to boys town in Pattaya, you will be better suited, piss off with your arse hole coments, gay boy

Chris Topher Ian Fowler 555, all these dead men with limited days trying to talk smack. I am actually in Bkk enjoying the time of my life. Hua Hin is a town full of dead farangs with very few days left. It is so sad.
Terry ********
Us Nek What a sad person you are.
Life is what YOU make it, not what life makes YOU.
My son came to HH when he was 21 and stayed for 12 years. He always had plenty of friends in his age group.
