About Satun

Satun is only a few kilometres from the Andaman coast but a whopping 940 km from Bangkok. Although a majority-Malay Muslim town, Satun has largely escaped the strife that plagues some of the neighbouring provinces such as Narathiwat, Yala and Pattani. Satun is a safe and very friendly place to visit. Satun had a population of 24,000 in 2020. The dialect of Malay spoken here is different from that spoken in the other southern Thai provinces, and is instead similar to theKedahdialect of Malay. Satun is also the name of the province. When looking for transport to Satun, ensure you are booking tickets to Satun town, and not another place in Satun province.
