I’ve lived in Thailand for more than 12 years and can honestly say I’ve been to Pattaya maybe twice. Since the COVID bite, the collapse of tourism, and heightened pollution in Bangkok, I decided to give it another look, and what a gem! Clean air, uncrowded beaches, and affordability are the new Pattaya. In no way making light of the obvious economic impact many are dealing with, there is more reason to consider a visit if you can. Great Thai hospitality as always.
