Location

Suan Son Pradiphat railway station is located in Nong Kae Subdistrict, Hua Hin District, Prachuap Khiri Khan Province. It lies 221.03 km (137.3 mi) from Thon Buri Railway Station and serves Suan Son Pradiphat Beach as well as the nearby Rajabhakti Park.

The station was originally opened as a railway halt and was later upgraded to a staffed station on December 11, 2023, following the completion of the double-track railway section.

Nearby, Thailand's first automatic level crossing—inaugurated on August 7, 2010, by then Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva—is also located in this area.

A special excursion train from Bangkok terminates here every weekend.
