Bang Saen Beach, known locally as Hat Bang Saen, lies in Chonburi province, eastern Thailand, just about 14 kilometers from Chonburi city and roughly 100 kilometers east of Bangkok. This makes it one of the most accessible coastal spots for a quick escape from the capital, often drawing weekend crowds of Thai families and day-trippers rather than large numbers of international tourists.
