Pattaya Overview
Pattaya beach
Pattaya Beach is 4 kilometers long with a road running parallel to the beach. From the mid-section to the southern end of the area, there is a vast array of restaurants, bars, department stores, souvenir stores, as well as other places of entertainment.
A Wealth of Watersports
A daytime stroll along the beach to one side and beach road to the other.
Available watersports you can rent a slippery banana boat, try your hand at wind surfing, or join the paragliders swaying gently in the blue horizon – the choice is yours! Diving expeditions and tours to one of several offshore coral islands.
Deck Chairs and Beach vendors
Those feeling inactive need not fear. As easily as you can skid in jet skis across the water here, those looking to relax can hire a rubber ring and drift off, or enjoy the shade, comfort and views afforded by a deck chair and umbrella. The latter are ubiquitous all along the shore line. Hungry or feel like shopping? Unwilling to leave behind your seat? Never fear, as an endless procession of tenacious but amiable vendors march up and down Pattaya beach all day long, their sole aim to deliver all you desire.
From the exotic to the mundane, this human conveyor belt ferries everything from ice creams, cold drinks and newspapers to jewelry, freshly roasted nuts and deep fried crabs. Should you want to pass, shaking your head normally does the trick. Failing that, buy some sunglasses and pretend you're asleep.
