Khok Kham lies in Mueang Samut Sakhon, the coastal province just south-west of Bangkok, where fishing villages, seafood markets and the upper Gulf of Thailand sit close together. The district is a working local area rather than a resort strip, so its streets and markets reflect everyday life in the province. Ratawan homestay and resort is reached by road from Bangkok, and arriving by car or taxi is the practical way in.

The sights nearby are spread along the roads. The Bay of Bangkok is 3.9 km away and Ban San Dap village is 3.2 km away, while the Wat San Panthai Norasing pagoda lies 5.4 km off, with Wat Samakkhi Sattharam, another pagoda, at 5.7 km. The markets of Mahachai, including a dried seafood market and a fish market, are a short drive away, and the Best Ocean Airpark & Golf course is also nearby.

A day here could begin at the bay, continue to the pagodas of Wat San Panthai Norasing and Wat Samakkhi Sattharam, and end at the fish and dried seafood markets of Mahachai. Since the sights are spread out, driving between them is the practical choice, and the property has on-site parking for your car during the day.
