Pattaya
Beach, in Chonburi province on the east coast of the Gulf
of Thailand, is the most famous of the beach destinations
in Thailand. The partying gets intense after the sun goes
down, and the range of diversions appeals to every taste,
interest and preference. You can find whatever you want in
this cosmopolitan city dedicated to extravagant indulgence
and the pursuit of pleasure.
A little over two hours from Bangkok by comfortable, air-conditioned
bus, Pattaya is within easy reach of a dozen excellent, affordable
golf courses which have spectacular views and all the amenities.
It is also home to numerous fully equipped businesses which
offer scuba adventures at one of the nearby islands. The beach
on Pattaya bay itself is not ideal for watersports, but nearby
Jomtien and Naklua beaches provide cleaner, less crowded venues
for swimming, windsurfing, boating, and other kinds of sun-drenched
fun in the warm, turquoise waters of the Gulf.

Nong
Nooch's prickly attractions.
|
|
- Ko
Lan is the only island near Pattaya with accomodations
for tourists. Small glass bottom boats are an easy way to
view the plentiful coral formations, and equipment is available
on the island for those who prefer snorkeling, para-sailing,
water skiing or scampering about on jet skis. Deep sea fishing
expeditions can also be arranged.
- A
six km long stretch of beach facing southeast into the Gulf
of Thailand makes Hat
Jomtien popular with windsurfers and water sports enthusiasts
who appreciate its uncrowded waves and refreshing breezes.
- Si
Chang Island makes a nice weekend outing for local tourists.
While the beaches are not as enjoyable as those on islands
further east and south, such as Ko
Samet, tourists can explore the remains of a former
royal palace which was built as a summer retreat for King
Chulalongkorn.
- Two
man-made lakes and more than 500 acres of exquisitely manicured
gardens, including gardens dedicated to bonsai, cactus,
palms and bromeliads, and a hothouse for orchids and ferns,
make Nong
Nooch Tropical Garden one of the most attractive tourist
resorts in the province.
