Aussie 20, why so aggressive mate? my original question might sound stupid but it was genuine, I really don't know what the beach is like, I've only ever been on Beach Road after dark and you can't see the beach then, in the past I wasn't interested in the beach as Valley Boy said I chill by the pool during the day and at night hit the bars, On the 3 occasions I've stayed in Pattaya none of hotel's have had a view of Pattaya beach or been anywhere near it so how would I know what the beach was like?, OK maybe I should have taken time out to look at it but why when I wasn't interested in it? how many of you guys have bothered to look at the pool of a 5* hotel that you're not interested in. I don't think the question deserved the replies some of you posted, all I wanted to know was is the beach any good, is it a dirty swamp, or covered in shit, or full of fishing boats, get the idea, that's what a forum is, I don't know something so I ask a question, you lot in turn are supposed to post anwsers based on your personal knowledge and experience and try to help me understand, help me gain knowledge, get it?

Been to Pattaya 3 times this year and haven't seen the beach once (I'm assuming there is a beach), I normally spend the daylight hours either in bed or by the hotel pool, on my next trip I intend to downsize the hotel which may mean I don't have a pool and will need to sunbath at the beach or elsewhere, my questions are..... 1. is there a proper beach? or is it a 2 foot wide strip of sand? 2. are there sun beds and umbrellas on the beach? 3. any beach areas better than others North, South, Central ? 4. any where else to sleep/sunbath in the sun during the day, park or maybe another friendly hotel.? 5. what sort of costs will I be looking at for beach umbrellas/beds/entry to parks etc.. Moving on, I've done the go-go bars and want something different in the way of evening entertainment, my lady and I both like the live music Blues bar just off Walking Street are there any more free live music bars or restaurants (with AirCon) in or around Pattaya, any other suggestion for evening entertainment, remember keep it clean.

I just got back from Thailand and the video screens on EVA do make the 12 hours a lot easier to take, movies, TV shows and games, really good. I'm going back in April and I'll be flying EVA,.
