Who sells Swim Goggles?

Post by Homer »

The answer is probably "A sporting goods store" but I haven't been here long enough to know where any of those are, let alone know of any good ones. Thanks.

There is a big sporting goods store on the top floor of the Market Village Mall near the movie theater. There is also a sporting goods section on the second or third floor of the old Hua Hin shopping mall. I'm almost sure I've seen goggles at one of those places. Failing that, there is a big sporting goods store north of Cha-Am in the back of the big outlet mall that should have them.
My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?

Tesco sold em last time I was there in the school supplies isle.

failing that try one of the beach supply sellers down at the end of the Hilton beach road on the left as you walk to the beach.

good luck

If you're a serious swimmer, I bought a pair of Speedo 'Ice' goggles from the old Shopping Mall that HHF mentions above.
They're not the cheapest, but they're one of the best you can buy.

The ones you get down by the beach are okay for kids who are here on holiday but don't expect them to last for more than a few days. As Steve G has pointed out, you get proper swim goggles at the old shopping mall on the 2nd or 3rd floor. I bought mine there about 4 or 5 years ago and they're still going strong.

:lach: I think if I donned a pair of speedos as per VS' Mod suggestion, you would be sorry. The Japanese whaling fleet would turn towards Hua Hin rather promptly.
