A heartwarming trip to Hua Hin, taking little Gigi to the sea

🐾 A heartwarming trip to Hua Hin: take your little Gigi to the beach, see waterfalls, and search for butterflies in Pa La-U.

If you're looking for a trip that combines the sea, nature, and the joys of spending time with your beloved pet, Hua Hin is the perfect destination, especially with a golden retriever named "Gigi" joining you. On this trip, we'll take you to experience the beauty of Wat Huai Mongkol, Suan Son Pradipat Beach, and Pa La-U Waterfall, and capture the captivating sight of butterflies fluttering about from April to July.

📍 First stop: Wat Huai Mongkol. Start the day by paying respects to the large Luang Por Thuat statue at Wat Huai Mongkol, a sacred site highly revered by the locals of Hua Hin. The shady, tranquil atmosphere makes for a perfect place to pray for a smooth journey. There are also beautiful photo spots, which Gigi herself seems to enjoy, thanks to the spacious area where she can run freely.

🏖️ Second stop: Suan Son Pradipat Beach. From Wat Huai Mongkol, we headed to Suan Son Pradipat Beach, a quiet and pet-friendly beach. Here, Gigi had her first taste of the sea, having fun chasing the waves. Amidst the shady pine trees lining the beach, it's perfect for laying down a blanket, relaxing, or having a small picnic by the sea.

🌳 Third stop: Pala-U Waterfall. Another highlight of the trip was the journey to Pala-U Waterfall, located in Kaeng Krachan National Park, approximately 60 kilometers from Hua Hin. This waterfall has multiple levels, allowing you to explore at your leisure. From April to July, you can witness swarms of colorful butterflies flitting among the natural salt licks, streams, and waterfall edges, creating a beautiful scene that feels like you've stepped into a fairytale world.

Jiji herself seemed excited by the natural scents around her, happily running around in the shallow stream. She didn't forget to stop and let us take a photo with the butterflies clinging to the leaves. It was one of the most heartwarming and memorable moments of the trip.

💡 Tips for dog travelers:

Don't forget to bring clean water and familiar toys.

Check the areas where your dog is allowed before traveling.

Bring a poop bag and a towel to dry off after playing in the water.

This Hua Hin trip wasn't just about relaxation; it was about fulfilling your heart. With her beautiful nature and clear eyes, Gigi sees the world with excitement and true love.

📸 Don't forget to capture every moment, because every step of your journey with your pet is a memory that will last forever.
