Pattaya at a glance
Pattaya was a fishing village until the 1960s, when American servicemen began arriving on leave during the Vietnam War. It grew into a large beach resort southeast of Bangkok. People come for the beaches, the nightlife, nearby islands and family attractions.
Known for
Walking Street วอล์กกิ้งสตรีท
The nightlife strip at the southern end of Pattaya Beach; the city has tried to shift its image toward families.
Sanctuary of Truth ปราสาทสัจธรรม
A temple-like building made entirely of carved wood, begun in 1981 and still under construction; visitors wear hard hats inside.
Koh Larn เกาะล้าน
The main offshore island, with Tawaen as its busiest beach; public ferries take about 45 minutes from Bali Hai Pier.
Jomtien Beach หาดจอมเทียน
The long beach south of Thepprasit Road, lined with condominiums, beachside hotels, shops and restaurants.
Pratumnak Hill เขาพระตำหนัก
The hill between Pattaya and Jomtien, known for its viewpoints and the Big Buddha at Wat Phra Yai.
Getting there
Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) is about 120 km away by road. Tickets for direct buses to Pattaya are sold at Level 1, Gate 8, and the ride takes about 2 hours. Roong Reuang Coach buses end at the Jomtien bus station; the 999 bus stops at intersections along Sukhumvit Road. U-Tapao Airport (UTP) is about 45 minutes' drive south.
Getting around
Blue songthaews, known as baht buses or blue taxis, provide most city and suburban transport. Ride-hailing apps also work.
When to go
December to February is the dry season. March and April are hot and humid. The rainy season runs from about May to November.
Local tip
For Koh Larn, take the public ferry from Bali Hai Pier past Walking Street. Check the last return ferry time at the pier, since missing it means a costly speedboat.
