Visit Koh Sak in Pattaya Bangkok Tour

Koh Sak in Pattaya Bangkok Tour Koh Sak is a tiny horseshoe-shaped island about 10km west of Pattaya, just 600m from Coral Island (Koh Larn). Unlike its much larger neighbour, this idyllic little crescent of land has no permanent settlements, but remains an extremely popular destination for tourists visiting the area because of its gorgeous white sandy beaches. The beach which lines the inside of the U-shaped bay is the larger at 250m long, as well as being the more popular and home to a small restaurant where you can buy drinks and cheap Thai food. A concrete footpath runs the short distance through the wooded interior of the island to the much smaller (only 80m) beach on the other side. Walking along this route, you will find some of the really fascinating history of Koh Sak. It used to be an extremely exclusive resort island, with many famous visitors leaving their foot- and handprints in the concrete lining the path. This includes the Duke of Edinburgh, the Shah Reza Palahvi of Iran, former Presidents of the United States and His Majesty the King of Thailand. Even Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin left their footprints on Koh Sak, just a few months after having left them on the moon. The island and the waters around it are particularly popular with divers and snorkelers. The sheltered bay makes a great training ground for beginners, with plenty of hard corals and interesting sea life including a few hawksbill turtles and several bamboo sharks. A little off the east coast, you will find the wreck of the HTMS Kut, which was scuttled by the Royal Thai Navy in September 2006 and now rests at a depth of about 30m. Access to Koh Sak is exclusively by speedboat transfer, which is available from Bali Hai Pier and costs about 1,000 baht for the boat, with a maximum capacity of 10-15 people. It is important to note that there is no fixed dock on the island, so you might have to wade for a short distance to get to dry land.

Art in Paradise Pattaya Tour

Art in Paradise Pattaya Art in Paradise is a fun and fresh take on an art gallery that has closed the divide between art and spectator with three-dimensional paintings that are interactive and laugh-out-loud funny. Through clever use of shading and borders, artists have painted directly on to walls to create stunning images that trick our eyes into thinking animals are smashing through walls, friends are balancing over raging waterfalls and polar bears are stealing a sip of our coconut. The gallery has over 100 individual art pieces in ten themed sections, covering optical illusions, wild animals, nature, past civilisations and reproductions of classic art with witty additions such as bright pink nail polish on a pre-Raphaelite beauty, or a pencil added to the Mona Lisa so you can be Leanardo Da Vinci… for a second, at least. The taking of photographs isn’t just tolerated at Art in Paradise, it is actively encouraged and you will see plenty of Thai people engaging in one of the nation’s favourite pastimes, taking shot after shot of friends in ever more elaborate poses. Art in Paradise inspires visitors to get creative with the paintings as the 3D imagery looks more authentic in photographs. This is a great place to come with children, friends or on a date and you will leave the gallery with a lot of funny moments captured on your camera. It takes around two hours to get around the whole gallery, although you can spend as little or as long as you wish interacting with the paintings. There is nothing else quite like Art in Paradise in Pattaya as it is well thought out, professionally executed and is something the whole family can enjoy in any weather. The price is a sticking point however, at 500 baht for foreign adults and 300 baht for foreign children. This pricing scheme seems a little high compared to the 150 baht Thai citizens are required to pay, but this is a common strategy employed by many tourist activities in Thailand. If you live in Thailand, you can show your work permit or driving license to gain entry at the Thai price irrespective of your nationality.

In that case, you might ask how those visitors enjoy Pattaya, and what things to do in Pattaya Thailand are, apart from nightlife. When his army arrived in the vicinity of what is now Pattaya, Phraya Tak encountered the troops of a local leader named Nai Klom, who tried to intercept him. When the two met face to face, Nai Klom was impressed by Phraya Tak’s dignified manner and his army’s strict discipline. He surrendered without a fight and joined his forces. The place the armies confronted each other was thereafter known as “Thap Phraya”, which means the “army of the Phraya”.

Visit Monkey Island in Pattaya Tour

Visit Monkey Island in Pattaya Tour Monkey Island goes by various names, including Koh Ling (Thai for “Monkey Island”), Koh Ped (“Duck Island”) and the official name: Koh Klet Kaew (“Crystal Shard Island”). True to some of its names, the tiny, jungle-covered lump of land is shaped roughly like a splinter of crystal and is famous for its large population of crab-eating macaques. There are no ducks, however. The 24-hectare island just off the coast of Sattahip is home to hundreds of monkeys which have become accustomed to human contact as a result of daily visits from boats carrying tourists. The stony beach on the eastern end of the island is one of the most popular spots on the route of many of the island-hopping tours sailing from Ocean Marina Yacht Club in Na Jomtien, with visitors enjoying feeding and photographing the residents. Monkey Island Pattaya was once the home of quite a large white-handed gibbon population introduced by US Armed Forces scientists in 1967. They were part of a study into the feasibility of using isolated breeding colonies as a ready supply of subjects for testing potential malaria vaccines on. However, the institute behind the programme stopped using gibbons in their research a few years later and the gibbons were removed and released into the wild near Kanchanaburi. The current residents are crab-eating macaques, also known as long-tailed macaques and locally as Ling Samae (‘Ling’ means monkey and ‘Samae’ is a type of crab). There numbers have grown so large, thanks to being regularly fed by visitors, that the Royal Thai Navy has to provide food aid during the off-season to prevent mass starvation! The monkeys are so used to tourists that they will often swim out to meet approaching boats, eager to get at the fruit that most of them bring along. If you want to feed them yourself, bananas and nuts are good, but watermelon is their favourite. It is important to note that, while the residents of Monkey Island Pattaya are generally friendly and approachable and will even climb up on you if you are carrying food, they are still wild and can become aggressive without warning.

Splashdown Waterpark in Pattaya Bangkok Tour Attraction

Splashdown Waterpark in Pattaya Bangkok Tour Attraction Splashdown Waterpark Pattaya is an exciting adventure playground on the outskirts of Pattaya. Based roughly on the UK TV gameshow “Total Wipeout”, it features a selection challenging and thrilling slides and games designed to challenge the bravery and fitness of teenagers and adults – kind of like a rollercoaster where you have to push it along yourself! Once you’ve been fitted with a lifejacket, helmet and rubber safety shoes (all included in the ticket price), your first obstacle is the Super Slider – at over 15 metres, the tallest inflatable waterslide in the world! The steep drop back down to ground level, with a little flick at the end to throw you into a large pool, is an excellent introduction to the park. After being eased in with mere acrophobia and rapid acceleration, you are faced with Splashdown Waterpark Pattaya’s toughest challenge – the so-called Big Red Balls. These are exactly what they claim to be – eight giant crimson inflatable spheres, tethered in a line from one side of a pool to the other. Jumping from one to the next is a great challenge of balance and coordination. The best we ever managed was getting fished out of the pond by the helpful staff after taking a face-full of the third one! The next challenge is relatively tame – just an exciting and exhausting race across floating trampolines and obstacles in The Zorb Race. It is the part of the waterpark which closest resembles “Wipeout”. Complete that, and you face The Square Runner, which is similar in principle to the Big Red Balls, except for the shape of the obstacles. They’re just as challenging, however, and you’re just as likely to get wet. Rounding off the challenging games at Splashdown Waterpark Pattaya are two where it’s all about making a splash, with the Big Blue and the Big Blob. The first is a nine-metre-high and 18m-long slide, which seems like quite a gradual descent, until you see the three-metre drop into the water at the end! The Blob is like a giant inflatable sausage, where you sit on one end and someone else jumps on the other, throwing you high into the air. Other attractions at Splashdown Waterpark Pattaya include an ATV course, a kids slip and slide (like a much less extreme version of the Big Blue) and a zorb ball ride. There is also a restaurant, a bar and even a small mini-mart, giving you the chance to recover some of your energy before having another go at getting past the third Big Red Ball. Finally, there are changing rooms with showers and restrooms, so you don’t have to take the ride home soaking wet. While generally quite safe, the main attractions are all an extreme sort of fun, so you are likely to come away with a few aching muscles at the very least. While entry for children under 120cm tall is free, they will not be allowed on any of the main attractions – only Zorb Mountain and the Kids Slip and Slide. All-day entry for those over 120cm costs 1,500 baht (650 baht for Thai nationals and expatriates with valid ID), including free two-way hotel transfers and entry for those who just came to watch is 200 baht.

Visit Ramayana Water Park in Pattaya

Skin and eyes of all ages are protected from harsh chemicals by the fact that there aren’t any in use. The pools all use fresh, clean water drawn from on-site wells, which is thoroughly cleaned with a state-of-the-art filtration system, meaning that it is actually theoretically drinkable. If a refreshing gulp of the park’s water doesn’t sound too appealing, head over to one of the three large food outlets or the swim-up bar in the adults’ pool. There is also plenty of opportunity for the grown-ups to chill out, either on private cabanas atop the hill and in the middle of the natural lake and river or in the extensive parkland. You could also grab an inflatable and ride the lazy river, which loops around the base of the hill. Those coming to Ramayana Water Park for the excitement, though, will not be disappointed. There are numerous large high-speed slides, a double FlowRider, a teen activity pool and, for special occasions, a performance stage with large LCD display, which is surrounded by a dual wave machine pool. Ramayana Water Park also offers important conveniences to make your fun as carefree as possible, including secure lockers, extensive on-site car parking and a plentiful supply of washrooms. It is sure to provide at least a full day’s safe, family-friendly, wet and wild adventure. With parkland, a hill and a natural lake, it makes an impressive effort to fit with its surroundings, though the large, brightly-coloured slides make it easy spot from a distance as you drive up. To reach the park, turn off Sukhumvit Road 3km south of the entrance to Nong Nooch Tropical Botanical Gardens and follow that road for 7km.

Pattaya Park Attraction

Pattaya Park Attraction Pattaya Park, a landmark on Jomtien Beach, is best known for its 240-metre tall observation tower, which doubles as a jumping tower. The tower hosts three revolving restaurants serving international buffet, all with 360-degree views of Pattaya. There’s also a separate water park and amusement park. Visible from any point along Pattaya Beach, Pattaya Park is an ideal attraction for the entire family. Its beachfront location occupies an expansive area on the jutting headland that connects South and Jomtien beaches. From the tower, you get one of the most amazing 360-degree bird’s eye views of the entire area. The beach also feels more secluded and private, with fewer peddlers and well-shaded areas with beach chairs for lounging. Pattaya Park Highlight ‘Amusement park’ is not the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of Pattaya. So for families, Pattaya Park offers a good alternative to beach activities and other tourist attractions found along Sukhumvit Road. The Water Park has a gigantic waterslide and a whirlpool where you can let yourself loose and just go with the flow. If you don’t want to get wet, head over to Fun Park and enjoy a few rides on the rollercoaster, Viking, monorail, musical carousel or, for the more adventurous souls, tower shot. Designed for young children, Fun Park is more a fairground activities park than a fully-fledged amusement park with hair-raising thrill rides. For the thrill factor, Pattaya Park Tower has a jumping platform where you can try one of the three ways to get back to the ground: Sky Shutter, Speed Shutter, or Tower Jump – depending on how much of an adrenalin rush you prefer. If jumping off the tower is not your idea of having a good time, try having a meal at one of the three revolving restaurants up top. A choice of international buffet is available for lunch and international seafood buffet for dinner. Enjoy your meal as the backdrop of the city and ocean slowly reveal themselves. Or you can just go up to the observation deck and enjoy the views. Good to know about Pattaya Park Admission varies for each type of activity. The Pattaya Park Tower (open 11:00-22:00) has two types of tickets – with or without the buffet. The Fun Park (10:00-19:00) has a combination ticket; one ticket allows you on three rides. For the Water Park, you pay one price at the entrance and enjoy all the facilities inside (food and drinks cost extra).
