Beach
Activities |
|
|
|
| |
are plentiful in Pattaya.
If your konstruct some racing cars or speed boats out
ids get tired of building ordinary sand castles then
help them cof sand...they can 'race' these for hours
or of course there are umpteen other activities such
as volley ball, beach cricket and the like to entertain
the children. There are simply so many things one can
do on a beach besides shell collecting and catching
a tan. |

Diving
and Snorkeling |
|
|
|
| |
It’s recommended that
children don’t learn to scuba dive before they are 13
years old but snorkelling can be done by anyone. If
you or your children can’t swim, don a life jacket (far
safer than other forms of floating apparatus) and join
in. You don’t have to cart the family out on an organised
trip either just swimming about along the shore-line
can be exciting. |

Elephant
Rides |
|
|
|
| |
If you like views, heights and elephants, there’s no
better way to survey the jungles of Pattaya than atop
one of these meandering monoliths. Even if you don’t
want a ride, you can buy bananas from the elephant venue
and hand feed the animals. Don’t forget to take pictures
of the kids and these new found friends to send home
to Grand-ma and Grand-pa.

Go-Carting |
|
|
|
| |
Thrill at the speed
as you zoom around the go cart track. Go-karting is
popular in Thailand and Pattaya hold many karting competitions.
When the tracks aren’t holding international events,
the general public may rent the vehicles and try the
sport out for themselves. There are beginner, advanced
and an off-road track. |

Sailing |
|
|
|
| |
A slightly different water activity and not often
considered by those who aren’t already involved in
the sport, sailing is definitely an, ‘all in the family’
pass-time no matter what your children’s ages. From
the burbling baby to the teenager, what better way
than to really discover Pattaya's coast and offshore
islands, other than on a boat? There are a number
of sailing dinghy and catamaran rental outlets on
most beaches in the area.
If you would rather spend the day being taken by
boat rather than having to play with sails and ropes,
you can always charter a speed boat to get the family
around on the water.

Nightlife |
|
|
|
| |
Discotheques, transvestite cabarets, nightclubs, coffee
shops, open-air bars, amusement arcades and restaurants
with live music and entertainment compete for attention.
Most establishments are located along the Pattaya Beach
Rd and in South Pattaya, the resort’s major shopping
area. Pattaya is home to one of the largest cabarets
in all of Asia. Guaranteed no exploitation of ‘women’
as all the performers are transvestites. |
