Pattaya has become synonymous with“Beach Vacation Paradise” and is known as the Hawaii of the East. Pattaya Beach which has particularly clear water and white sand, is a 3-kilometer section of the 15km coastline of Pattaya. With gentle slopes and clear sea water, it is an excellent bathing place. The northern part of the beach is quiet and there are many beautiful beach hotels and resorts for holidaymakers who wish to enjoy a quiet holiday. The southern part of the beach is home to a variety of businesses and entertainment venues, suitable for those who love crowds and excitement. During day time, there are plenty of water sports on Pattaya Beach. At night, there are lively bars on one side of the beach and the sea on the other side. The atmosphere is great.

There’s no better place to start than the most popular and most lively beach in the city – Pattaya beach. At four kilometers long, this crescent-shaped beach has plenty of space for visitors and it needs it too, with plenty of people descending upon it to take advantage of the blazing sun and warm weather. There’s more than sunbathing on offer though. Parasailing, jet skiing and the classic banana boat are all available for you to enjoy, as well as beachside shacks that can prepare your favourite Thai dish should you get peckish. It’s also home to some great parties at night, if that’s your cup of tea.
