Clear. Cool.
7 day forecast »
A throbbing monument to holiday hedonism, Pattaya whips up a seedy, summer cocktail enjoyed by more than a million visitors per year. It's more Costa del Bangkok than authentic Thailand.
Cutting a crescent around Pattaya Bay, the city's main beach is a peninsula of basting suntanned flesh, souvenir stalls and sand castles. The coconut scent of suntan oil hangs in the air, and a knot of high-rise hotels, dive shops, and golf courses cater to the legions.
Suggested Itineraries: Pattaya
Pattaya is a late riser and the city really comes to life after dark, when the go-go bars glow red and thunderous bass lines call night owls to happy hour at a menagerie of dance clubs.
Even rowdy Pattaya, however, has its quieter corners. South of Pattaya proper, Hat Jomtien caters to a calmer crowd, while the city's offshore wrecks and reefs offer some of the most accessible diving in the Bangkok area.
