Neon lights and Pattaya City nights

Pattaya City is globally known for its assortment of evening entertainment. When it comes to live music, this destination is certainly a highlight for travelling audiophiles out there.

When the last guitar string is strummed, the after-dark night markets will furnish your trip with trinkets and cultural gems in order to make each journey one to remember, long after you leave! For a sample of the social fare, venture to Thep Phraya Road for an array of beer bars, drinking hang-outs, and vibrant cabaret shows; Jomtien Complex will leave you spoilt for choice.

Quieter evenings away from the areas' spirited nightlife can be had in Naklua, an area offering a more laid-back night out.

Cultural offerings

Pattaya’s swift evolution from a sleepy fishing village to a tourist mecca has left a rich cultural residue that has survived to this day. There are so many sacred locations to quench the historical desires within visitors to this region of Thailand. Visit Buddha Hill, one of the highest points of this destination. Here you’ll find a magnificently large statue of Buddha as well as a sacred space dedicated to Confucius and Lao-zi. Discover Laem Ratchawet and glimpse the Sanctuary of Truth, a huge looming wooden construction in the north. In line with ancient Thai thought, this structure was built to last and features some of the finest carving details made by man!

Things to do whilst on holiday

Pattaya is an absolute hub of activity and sports in Thailand. Whether you’re into deep sea fishing, cycling or the thrill of diving from great heights, you’ll be well looked after. Experience the Flight of the Gibbon and see the rainforest as you zip-line over the forest canopy to grapple with panoramic views unparalleled in the country.

When it comes to golf, this region means business! With an abundance of courses (21 to be exact!) designed by golfing greats such as Nick Faldo, Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player, you’ll be sure to find challenging holes and lush fairways everywhere.

For a rugged night of spectator sports see the muscle bulging, fly kicking geniuses competing for Thai boxing glory in a multifarious number of beer bars, just off the infamous Beach Road.

Weather

With a tropical wet and dry climate, the weather here is divided into seasons. You’ll either experience a hot and humid season between March and May, a hot and rainy season between June and October, and finally a warm and dry period between November and February.
