For the adventurous tourist there is a great range of exciting activities to choose from including the sites listed on this page. New fun things to do in Pattaya are added each week. Thailand’s Pattaya the original tourist resort is a hearty mix of naughty nightlife, great restaurants, sunny beaches, curious attractions, family-friendly leisure parks and good value shopping. Just one and a half hours from Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport, this lively town is a multi-cultural destination with menus from German, Thai, English, Dutch, French, Russian, Swedish, Italy well to make it simple just about everywhere. It’s a popular fun weekend from Bangkok.
Pattaya Beer Bars is another choice for some day time fun. Some say they number in the thousands and can be found just about anywhere here in Pattaya, Jomtien or Naklua. Pattaya Beer Bars are open air bars with a number of girls acting as hostesses that will do almost anything to get your attention. There is a very large expat population living here and you can find a lot of them in the Beer Bars for very good reasons. The bars are fun and not expensive as a rule. Many of the expats choose  retirement here in Pattaya because of the excellent opportunities and values you can find here. The best time to visit Pattaya which is called the peak or high season is from November to March when the sun shines most and the air is dry. Sometimes the temperature may dip down to around 70 degrees and you will see the little Thai girls running around with their coats on. If on the other hand you don't mind a little hot temperature and some rain the low season might be the best value for you as your holiday will cost you less and that is true for my dancewatchers condo rooms as well.  If you are home and board you might want to visit Pattaya for a holiday.  I will tell you now that it will be a life changing event!!!!

Inside the museum one can find more than 300 beautiful miniatures in the bottles. All the structures reside in individual bottles of various colors.  All the bottles in different colors with different types of lights reflecting on their walls add special grandeur to the place. The bottles contain models of interesting places in the world. This concept of bottling up of things has added new ideas in many tourists also who have been reported to experience more with real practice by trying to do it by themselves.

Fishing in Pattaya
October through March are considered the best months for deep sea fishing in the waters off Pattaya Bay. As a rule, fishing is good just before and just after the new moon. Normally during the summer months the local waters get so hot the big game fish like the large Sailfish and the large Marlin leave the area. They start to return in late September when the monsoon rains begin and the water begins to cool off.

A huge selection of gold courses in and around pattaya by dancewatchers.com
"Golf in Pattaya can totally spoil you for returning home. You can play golf at a different course every day of a two week holiday and you still won't play all the international standard courses within an hour drive of Pattaya.
Many of Pattaya's courses are Country Clubs that have been designed by Nicklaus, Faldo, Thompson, Wolderidge, Dye and Trent Jones.
Expect manicured greens, raked traps and real live caddies. Courses in The Kingdom, especially on weekdays, tend to be much less crowded that what one sees in the west. And if you are a twosome, you can often play as a twosome.
The Siam Country Club was buit 27 years ago and has been one of the best known courses since, home to several international tournaments. 2006 it has been closed for a complete restoration and reopened only in March 2007. It has a great new layout, well maintained fairways and challenging placed bunkers are demanding a lot from the player. There is a small stream leading through the course, meeting with 6 holes"

                   Parasailing in Pattaya
You are lifted up into the air and begin floating over the the Pattaya sea and then suddenly you find yourself dropping suddenly and lowered until you dip your feet into the water. You start shouting, you think you are going down with the chute and wishing you had taken water sking lessons. Something is wrong. That’s when you rise up again, shivering, into the air as you jump to over a 100 feet in a flash. “You are now flying over the Pattaya sea and watching the beach line for pretty girls of which there are hundreds. That’s Parasailing in Pattaya. To find this sport just go to the beach and ask any beach vendor.
Pattaya Jet Ski
You can find Jet Skis up and down the Pattaya beaches from Jomtien, Pattaya to Nakula.  Vendors for this sport are very numerous and prices vary from the length of time you wish to rent the Jet Ski to the size of the Jet Ski. I think it would be fair to say that the average price should be about 600 baht per a 30 minute time slot for a medium size jet ski and more for one of the larger units. My advice to you is to take a hard look at the spot you are renting from so you will be able to identify that location to return the Jet Ski to.  You are responsible for any damages to the Jet Ski so look the unit over before renting. Be very careful of Jet Ski Scammers.  Read more about this in my Tips for Newbies
