Maybe TOT management who have never been out of Thailand or actually visited a 'world class beach' destination outside of the Land of Sand-free (LOS) beaches and waste-ladened garbage and industrial runoff - plastic and otherwise -everywhere perhaps? Just guessing. New campaign: "Come See The Black Sands of Pattaya!" Maui? Sure. Pattaya. Yuk. Edited July 14, 2018 by connda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zack61 Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Let’s see what Mother Nature has to say about its permanency. Hopefully plenty of Teflon mixed in so the turds slide off on the outgoing tides. What a racket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebell Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I like Pattaya. I don't want lots of tourists cluttering up the roads; polluting the sea; keeping meterless taximeters in business; providing sustenance for the Bandits-in-Brown. The monthly floods will take care of this new sand and stop floods of new tourists. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanista Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 19 hours ago, whitemouse said: Pattaya has nothing to worry about, most Chinese have probably never seen a beach, they wouldn't know a nice beach even you dumb a leaking oil tanker off Pattaya shores, and Indian tourists are happy, because beaches at home are even worse open sewers. Russians from Siberia are just happy to encounter warm water for first time in their life. So no worries, tourists are indeed flocking to Pattaya. But not because Thailand is best, but because it is closest and cheapest. Yes, exactly right. In Australia Pattaya beach would be roped off by AQIS as a toxic site. Much better & cleaner beaches in the UK but no cheap sex. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Who goes to Pattaya for the beaches? They are some of the most average beaches around. Nothing special, on any level. My guess is that in China, a tour to Pattaya includes the tag line, "come and see the most depraved people on earth, engage in selling their bodies, and witness the sheer and bizarre circus like spectacle". I seriously doubt they are promoting great beaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webfact Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Pattaya beach ready to welcome tourists back after Bt430-million sprucing Breaking News July 15, 2018 16:08 By The Nation Cr Pattaya News Tourists are expected to be crowding the beach in Pattaya again soon, according to a report on a city meeting in the Pattaya News. The newspaper quoted municipal officials as saying 400 metres of beachfront had been restored in a major cleanup and 100 metres were already back in the hands of beach business operators. “The other 300 metres will definitely be done by year’s end,” one official was quoted as saying, adding that sand had been transported from Koh Rangwian in a Bt430-million effort to widen the beach by 3.5 metres. The beautification project began near the Dusit Thani Hotel in January, but early on faced several delays. The newspaper said the “Pattaya Model” would make the city a world-class beach destination and the new sands would have the tourists flocking back.

I seriously doubt they are promoting great beaches. I have to agree with you . What is the attraction with Pattaya ? Using the so called beach is taking a risk with the local vendors who often take advantage of unsuspecting holiday makers . Bathing in the polluted waters ? should display a health warning and come to think about it , is there ever a chart published showing the degree of sea pollution ? As we all know Pattaya was the capital of the sex industry in Thailand sold at cheap prices but that is not the case now . It has been said that Pattaya is " past its sell by date " . However Chonburi has other attractions in smaller towns and is blessed with some world class golf courses . Having said all that I am told that the " dark side " of Pattaya , away from the main touristy venues , is the place to be because of its resident community of many expats who know the score .
