Pattaya Holidays

Holidays to Pattaya are always popular and Pattaya remains the largest resort in Thailand.  You will find Pattaya on the East Coast of the Gulf of Thailand, roughly 170 kilometers ( 2 1/2 hour drive ) southeast of Bangkok. In the sixties Pattaya was a simple fishing village but has now evolved into an amazing holiday destination. A fascinating escape where tourists, holiday makers from around the world unfold an incomparable array of possibilities to unwind during an exotic beach holiday.

Unlike other beach resorts, where natural surroundings are used as magnets to attract tourists, Pattaya makes an all-out attempt to provide the best of everything. Here, everything means everything a tourist can imagine while on holiday: recreation, entertainment, sports, sightseeing and fun. Pattaya holidays offer something for everyone, as it has a variety of attractions suitable for all types of visitors. This is the place where you can fill your day, from dusk to dawn, with endless activities, or you may choose to do nothing at all and relax.

Pattaya currently integrates the delights of a first class beach resort, city-like dining, shopping and night entertainment facilities with more than 300 assorted hotels, thousands of shops, restaurants and bars. In addition, there are an array of sports and recreational activities including beaches, golf courses, tennis courts, go-kart, gyms for working out, weight lifting and Thai-boxing gear. Pattaya offers a broad range of things to do. During the day, one may enjoy riding elephants or driving humble automatic mini-bikes, monstrous motorcycles, or even convertible Jeeps. Others go for shooting, scuba diving and surfing, deep-sea fishing, speed boats, scooters, water-skiing, parasailing, or aerial sports such as gliding ultra-lights and flying motor-propelled gliders. On the other hand, at night, there are restaurants, bars, theaters, cabaret shows, night clubs, bowling halls, billiard & snooker clubs, exotic shows, discos not to cite its absolutely incredible shopping which is available non-stop both day-and-night.

Given its proximity to the capital, Bangkok, it is no surprise that a bustling resort has developed here. Bangkok's sex industry spilled over into Pattaya decades ago, though these days it is a fully-fledged resort that caters for all types of Western Europeans, ranging from 18-35 year-olds looking for a party holiday through to families. This exotic beach resort welcomes approximately 5 million visitors a year. The friendly and hospitable Thai nature boosts its promotion, frequently bringing back the repeat visitors and constantly increasing the number of newcomers. Pattaya offers a wide range of holiday choice and has something to suit everyone - couples, families and singles alike.
