How do I meet people in Ranong?

When we asked people living in Ranong about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded:

"Ranong, is a small town that is not as popular with expats as other areas in Thailand, but it still offers a variety of activities and clubs for expats to join. One of the most popular activities is yoga, with several studios offering classes. There are also fitness clubs and gyms where expats can join and meet other like-minded individuals. For those interested in the local culture, there are Thai language classes and cooking classes. These not only provide an opportunity to learn about the Thai culture but also to meet other expats and locals. Outdoor activities are also popular in Ranong, with many expats joining hiking and cycling clubs. The area is known for its beautiful natural scenery, including hot springs, waterfalls, and national parks, making it a great place for outdoor enthusiasts. In terms of socializing, many expats meet people through local bars and restaurants. These venues often host live music and other events, providing a great opportunity to mingle and meet new people. Volunteering is another way that expats meet people in Ranong. There are several local charities and organizations that welcome the help of foreigners, and this can be a rewarding way to give back to the community and make new friends. Finally, there are also online forums and social media groups specifically for expats in Ranong and Thailand in general. These platforms can be a great resource for meeting people, finding out about local events, and getting advice on living in Ranong," explained one person living in Ranong, Thailand.
