sangtip2 Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Cleaning the beach is easy. Cleaning up the water will cost a lot more and probably never happen. I don't go in the water so I don't really care what the beach looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slippery snake Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Beach !!! who goes to Pattaya for the beach ??? I just been there and did have a swim, sea is full of brown stuff that I presume is shit ? Had one swim and no more, unless in hotel swimming pool. Only see about 4 or 5 people swimming at any given time,, mostly no one.. If you want nice beach go to Vietnam... I live at Patong and even the sea there is not clear,, Kata beach a few minutes along the coast is much better.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis7 Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 To be honest mostly thai locals at night time by the beach throws what ever and of course the great Russian tourists who think they have the right to do what ever in this country . I think instead of tourist police it's time to have beach petrol police to enforce strict law on such polluting the beaches and they should have plenty of big designated dumping places for garbage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stud858 Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Imagine if everyone who commented here grabbed a big plastic bag each day and met together at the beach , collected rubbish then dumped it at city hall car park everyday. May city planners take notice then. BTW Aussie football final tomorrow at 11.30 on Australia plus channel. 100,000 people go to see because it's exciting not because of tight shorts. But seriously if any body organises a clean up beach day, join in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctorbu Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 It doesn’t seem as bad in front of some hotels....I wonder if they have someone cleaning a bit in the mornings....at night and in the evening I always see rats the size of small cats on the sand and edge of boardwalk.

Henryford Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I went to Bang Saray the other day thinking it might still have a clean beach but is was just the same, filthy. No one even tries to clean it. The thai merchants just sit and look at the mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, during holidays and at weekends, the Thais love to swim in that sewage full of poo specially coloured sea, and enjoy seeing their kids swim in it, swallowing up some of it...

But seriously if any body organises a clean up beach day, join in. You could not clean it that way, as you'd have to do it not just each and every day, but also at least twice a day. As for the authorities, I don't think they would give a hoot about a few foreigners collecting rubbish on the beach. You'd have to involve Thai media, which is, partly, happening now. Whether things will change in the foreseeable future is anyone's guess. I've seen the sea and beaches (and neighborhoods) full of rubbish in Pattaya, Cha-am, Phuket... since I first came to Thailand 20 years ago...

smew Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 The problem is not Thais, as Thais will tell you, it's the Burma people and us tourists. Thais are best drivers and cleanest culture in the world ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a bit of a peninsular I was on Jomtien beach, about 2 kms along from there twice this week, and it was just as bad, if not worse than that picture, so it's not just that beach. I go there regularly every few months and I've never seen it like that before. I don't know where it's coming from but I've got a few ideas!

KOTO has learned that the storm drains used as dumpsters and most boat people are some of the main problems as is many beach goers, Thai and Farang, this once a year beach cleaning isn't doing any good, just getting write ups, there are plenty of prisoners with minor charges, would love to be outside cleaning a beach, Seems like the new people in charge are making a mistake in their priorities, to much to fast, making mistakes along the way... KOTO did his best, sorry it wasn't good enough... Doesn't seem to be working too well does it? Any why feed the stray mutts? It's like giving rhinoceros horn to Chinese men...as though a country with 1.2 billion or more people need virility enhancements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradWilkins Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Always amazes me the number of Russian and Indian tourists who swim at Pattaya beach. It must say something about beaches or lack of them in their home country. Good luck with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack100 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 So the way to clean the beaches is to produce hundreds of plastic , laminate posters and stick them on the trees - hmmm wonder why I havent seen that anywhere else . - bet the marine life love lunching on those little degraded pieces when they eventually get to the ocean .........
