With our convenient location just 15 minutes from Bang Pu Recreation Center, you can easily immerse yourself in nature—enjoy a breezy seaside walk, release crabs, or watch seagulls up close. Whether you’re traveling solo or with family and looking for a peaceful getaway, Bang Pu is the perfect destination for a short escape near Bangkok.
One of the most iconic images of Bangpu is witnessing tens of thousands of seagulls gracefully gliding above the famous Sukta Bridge. The best time to visit is from November to February, when the number of seagulls peaks. These birds migrate from the cold regions of Siberia to escape the harsh winter and spend the season in Bangpu.
Their presence transforms the sky above the coastline into a mesmerizing, ever-moving scene — a truly unforgettable moment for photographers and visitors alike.
