Welcome to OnlyChaam.com
This website is a personal webpage exclusively dedicated to Cha-Am, in Thailand. Our goal is to provide free and up-to-date information for tourists and expats.
Why Cha-Am
Cha-Am (it can also be written Chaam, Cha am, Cha Am or Cha-am, in Thai ชะอำ) is located 170 km south from Bangkok (that is about 2 or 2.5 hours by car) and 25 km north from Hua Hin, the famous seaside resort. Whereas Hua Hin has more facilities and a lot to offer for tourists (shopping, restaurants, entertainment...), Cha-Am has a more laid-back atmosphere, and the beach is very pleasant and quiet during the week. It gets much more animated on the week-ends, as Cha-Am (like Hua Hin) are destinations that are favoured not only by foreign tourists, but also by Thai people.
Why a website about Cha-Am
At the time when we needed specific information about Cha-Am, we couldn't find anything really satisfying on the web. So we decided to build a website with as much information as possible about Cha-Am, and only Cha-Am, for tourists planning their holidays or expats wanting to share their experience.
Let's share our experience!
If you live in Cha-Am or if you visit Cha-Am frequently, we would like to invite you to join our forum, where you can meet other expatriates living in the area, and share your knowledge to help first-time visitors who have questions about Cha-Am. But not all topics are necessarily about Cha-Am, so everyone is welcome, whether you have a question or any interest about Thailand or about this website.
Enter our forum and meet our friendly members!
Our projects
We will soon add a detailed city map of Cha-Am, more reviews of hotels and restaurants, videos of Cha-am, interviews of expats living in Cha-Am, and learning materials for Thai language. We will try our best to provide as much information as possible, and keep it up-to-date.
