Prachuap khiri khan there and gone

we managed to stop here and rent a motorbike. checked out all the surrounding beachs which actually varied. Some were fishing villages, some were muddy, the sand was different at a few. One of our favorites had restaurants across the ocean view and it was so relaxing.

The highlight is this is the town for the freshest, cheapest seafood!
We went to the large docks with our motorbike and watched the large trucks get filled in an ice station and also saw them transfer bins and coolers of fresh fish.

The local specialties here are cotton fish (fried/grilled) over shredded green mango salad. This was so refreshing and tasty as green mango is almost always in season especially now.
We also had fish with tamarind sauce and light fish and chips combo and finally Kevin had a seafood dish mixed with garlic and black pepper. All of these dishes were had at one restaurant recommended by books. It was called MA PROW. Very well put together dishes. All fresh ingredients and it looked and tasted professional. complete dishes were only $6. Which in the U.S. would be 15-30$ a dish. So glad we stayed here!

The 2nd night we found a bungalow with an ocean view. This was near another beach and it was again very peaceful.
