Thailand is the hot spot right now for tourists coming in from all over the world. However, one of the most popular places in Thailand where they can relax and enjoy the most exquisite scenery is certainly Pattaya.

Located at about 100 km southeast of Thailand’s capital, Bangkok, Pattaya faces the Gulf of Thailand. Among world travelers, it is known as a fantastic beach destination, which explains why more and more visitors have decided to choose it as their next holiday spot. It is essentially a resort town that offers beautiful beaches, the nightlife of your dreams, and more.

What does Pattaya have to offer?

Pattaya Neu (North Pattaya)

 For those who are looking for a quiet beach where they can enjoy the sun and splash around, Pattaya Neu is the place to be. It has a nice gradual slope that’s perfect if you love to swim all day long. Furthermore, the brown-red sand will be a welcome change for most tourists; it creates a beautiful contrast with the light blue sea and makes for a great photo opportunity.

 This area starts in front of Dusit Resort, or more precisely, from the Dolphin roundabout. And when you get tired of it, you can simply visit the beach right next to it — Pattaya Klang.

Pattaya Klang (Central Pattaya)

As some tourists would say, this is where all the magic happens. Pattaya Klang is the most popular beach for a variety of reasons. First of all, it also has brown-red sand, which makes enjoying the scenery that much more pleasurable. Additionally, this whole area is full of all sorts of facilities and accommodations. It’s never boring in this part of Pattaya — not when you can enjoy jet-skiing and paragliding.  

Pattaya Tai (South Pattaya)

Even though there’s only one sandy beach in Pattaya Tai, that doesn’t mean it’s not worth a visit or two. This area has plenty to offer, including the Walking Street, a 500-meter street filled with all sorts of facilities. If you’re looking to shop around, eat some delicious Thai food, go bar-hopping or dance the night away, this is the part of Pattaya you’ve been looking for.

Jomtien Beach

Windsurfing, jet-skiing and fresh food — Jomtien Beach is a dream come true for tourists who would like to escape the crowd and relax a bit. The tranquility of this area is what attracts them the most, as well as the nature around it. Apart from the beautiful sand, this beach has plenty of pine trees and a nice slope that lets you go into the sea at your own terms. Furthermore, it is popular not just among tourists, but retirees too. It’s the essence of peacefulness, mixed with sunshine, crystal-clear water and the most exquisite sea views you’ve ever seen.
