There are some Island near Hua Hin & Phrachaub Kiri Khan.I'm not sure how clear the water is but I guess clearer than Cha-Am.

Koh Singto is 800 meters off Suan Son beach,popular for fishing, sailing and diving. Boat rentals can be made at Khao Takiep village. Another peaceful spot is Suan Son Pradiphat beach 9 kilometers south of Hua Hin, where the fine white beach is lined with bungalows and food shops. Buses to this area depart from Dechanuchit Road station every 20 minutes. The fee is 5 Baht .

Bangsaphan, about 87 km. from the provincial town, safe snorkelling and diving in Prachuap Khiri Khan. If you are in Hua Hin, an easy access to diving and snorkelling sites can be made with tour agents. The sites are around the islands of Koh Thalu and Koh Sang where a number of coral reefs. Besides, there is Koh Lamla, which is the only place in Thailand where Kung Phayaban or "cleaning shrimps" can be found. You can also mingle with the fishermen and experience the way of life in this coastal fishing community at Ban Krud Beach.
