With its bamboo, sarong-draped tables, leafy front porch and tasty Thai and Western dishes, this is the place to hang in Satun (which explains the yachtie barflies).
Chinese and Muslim bites can be scouted on Th Burivanich and Th Samanta Prasit. Try the 'red pork' with rice at the Chinese food stalls or the southern-style roti offered at most Muslim restaurants (around 50B each). Satun's popular night marketcomes to life around 5pm and serves great Thai curries.

Ku Den Museum
Tears won’t be shed if you have to give this place a miss – Satun only has one real attraction, the Ku Den Museum. Housed in a lovely old Sino-Portuguese mansion, this excellent museum was constructed to house King Rama V during a royal visit but the governor snagged the roost when the king failed to show up. The building has been lovingly restored and the exhibits feature dioramas with soundtracks covering every aspect of southern Muslim life.

Thale Ban National Park
Very few foreigners make it out to this park, which lies on the Malaysian border about 30km northeast of Satun. Its main feature is a freshwater lake that sits in the middle of the 196-sq-km park, a scenic area of upland rainforest with captivating wildlife, waterfalls and caverns. There's no public transport to the park, but you can get here by hired taxi from Satun or Hat Yai.
