Pattaya is beyond question the premier resort on Thailand’s Eastern Seaboard. From being little more than a sleepy fishing village in the early sixties, Pattaya is now a vibrant city that seemingly never sleeps with activities and attractions to keep even the most demanding of holidaymaker occupied for as long as they can stay awake. Add to this the pleasant tropical climate and you’ve got a great holiday destination.
Starting with Naklua in the North, moving down past Pattaya Nua (North Road), Pattaya Klang (Middle Road) and Pattaya Tai (South Road), you arrive at Jomtien – a self contained resort in its own right and certainly Pattaya’s calmer sister. But don’t let that fool you – within a few short minutes in the Car provided with your Villa, by the frequent Song Teaw, (Baht Buses) or private Taxi, you’re right in the heart of Pattaya and the renowned Walking Street.
Read on to discover Pattaya’s legendary night life, shopping, attractions, activities such as Horse Riding, Elephant Riding and, for the more active, the various sporting activities such as Golf, Water Sports, Scuba Diving,. For those who want to imbibe more of Thailand’s culture, there are many local temples which are truly exquisite. Moreover, once you’ve spent some time on the local beaches, consider leaving the immediate Jomtien/Pattaya area and experience many of the day and overnight trips that will make your holiday truly memorable. Failing that, take the car to visit the local area including some nearby National Parks.
