Khlong Hae Floating Market is a popular tourist destination located on the outskirts of Hat Yai. Unlike some floating markets that are more tourist-oriented, this market retains a local feel with vendors selling from wooden boats along a canal. Visitors can sample authentic southern Thai dishes like khao yam (rice salad) and gaeng som (sour curry), as well as fresh fruits and snacks. The market also features handicrafts, clothing, and souvenirs. A covered walkway allows easy browsing, and there are often cultural performances, including traditional music and dance, adding to the lively atmosphere.

  • Taste local specialties like khao yam and roti from boat vendors.
