Beaches, Pools, Outdoor Exercise Forbidden?

Featured Replies

Any details about using the beaches, pools, exercising along the ocean walks being forbidden starting Tuesday (20 July)?

 

Thanks.

Rule of thumb, if you enjoy it, they will close it

Well you can be sure almost every pool that is not private is closed by now....

As far as I can tell, exercise isn't one of the few essential things that you are allowed outside your home for. My plan is to go to Tesco or Big C for essential food shopping, load up a trolley with heavy stuff, then spend an hour pushing it up and down the aisles until they get suspicious and ask me to leave, lol.

All condo pools are private, they should stay open.

Not to mention their cost will go down. I never really got it about pools. Most people stay away from others in pools (except couples). Anyway no problem for me as our pool is private in the back yard. I try to use it often but with the grey skies its not that inviting.

I am walking now on Beach Road walkway.  I'll let you know if I get arrested.

At least there might be somewilling ladyboys in the Soi 9 lockup, they seem to have deserted the beach, lol!

When I was on BR 2h ago there were people and some beach chair vendors were open. So this photo is a little bit 'biased'.

Fantastic now that is humour

Exercise is permitted. Public parks are open. The provisional order also says that beaches can remain open, however if your local beach is closed it is because of your local municipality.
The rule is that there should be no gathering of greater than 5, no food or drink consumed and masks at all times.
Exercise areas around lake Mabprachan were busy yesterday afternoon when I got there around 4pm.

Outdoor stadiums are also open, as are waterparks and golf. Gyms are closed.

Just for information, and to possibly save a wasted journey, I was at Pattaya Driving Range on third road earlier and was told they are closed from tomorrow.

Yep just been confirmed, golf courses, ranges, parks, pools, barbers and others, so hair cuts aren't essential..
