Pattaya Part 1

Pattaya could very well be my favorite city in Thailand. The city is conveniently located about 1.5 hrs away from Bangkok. The bus tickets are cheap around 110-150 baht one way. The buses leave hourly from Mo Chit bus station to Pattaya. It is a pain getting to the bus station itself however. It has a lot to offer to holidayers with various interests to each of their own. From its pristine beaches to the bustling nightlife, Pattaya has something for everyone.

Stood on either Pattaya or Jom Tien beaches which open out into the ocean with the city skyline in the background, you can get immersed into the two contrasting views of Pattaya. If you are someone looking for “nature” side of Pattaya, then hop on the next ferry available from Bali Hai pier.

There are two ferries bound for Ko Larn island which will arrive at different piers. In order to go to Nabaan pier, there are 7 different departing times starting from 7:00 am with the last one leaving Pattaya at 18:30 pm. The other ferry leaves for Tawen beach pier starting from 8:00 am to 13:00 pm. You can return to Pattaya from 13:00 pm onwards up until 17:00 pm using the same pier. The price of the ferry is very cheap only costing 30 baht for a single journey. You can also hire private boats to Koh Larn too and they are far more expensive. The ferries take about 1:30 hrs more or less depending on the weather and the tides. There are enough life vests for everyone in the ferries too which provided a sense of safety for somebody who cannot swim like myself.
