Pattaya is never famous for its beaches. Koh Laan is only a mere 20 minutes ride (by speedboat) from Pattaya. Water is clear & blue. Sand is soft & white. Swimming, snokelling, jet skiing or just simply lay down & soak in the sun... Plently of food are served there & some simple shopping too More

The big ferry out there is dangerous at times, people have drowned in accidents - few life jackets, no safety inspections. The beaches are clean, except after last year's floods when garbage was washed out to sea from Bangkok. Transportation and food are more expensive. I don't want to return. More

The Sea Walker must be experienced though bit costly. Koh Larn is excellent but avoid during Summer , it is unbearably hot. More

One of my most favorite islands...that i have to visit again and again. so convenience...close bangkok so easy to travel there. i recommend to rent a motorbike and explore around the island, you have to try all 7 beaches! More

A little disappointed as the best part of the day for us was the ferry ride over. Once you are there (on the back side/nice beach), there really isn't much to see and do.

flying very good but they say it s 20 m but just 10 m the beach not clean garbagage were all around so awfull :( More

There are plenty of places to stay at here. You can arrange a guest house when you get off the ferry. You can also rent a bike. People working on the island will be waiting for you once you get off the ferry so there is no need to search yourself--just go! Just make sure you agree on the prices... More

Must visit Coral island if you are planning even for a day in Pattaya. Full day tours comes with Lunch, travel by speed boat and return, etc....the indian visitors which are looking for Indian food during lunch should book with: http://www.sightseeingpattaya.com/pattaya_coral_island.html as this is the only tour operator which provides Indian Lunch as far as we know.
