overcrowded and not so clean. Beach road with people milling around is always full of traffic. Not a calm and quiet beach.

Frequently overcrowded, patrolled by scam-artists and sellers and even sitting in a deck chair will cost you far more money than it's worth. The sea is filthy and full of potentially lethal hazards, too. Not a place to go to relax or even to have fun.

Firstly I hope the editors of Tripadvisor do a review of some of the hateful comments on this string regarding ethnicity! To condemn a city like ours based upon one bay of three is like saying you have visited the Louvre when you have only seen a picture of the "Mona Lisa." In an earlier review from February of this...

I have visited Pattaya recently & personally experienced the Dark side of it. I have taken Speed Boat from one of the guy in the beach for 400 Baht, Once I come back from... More
