swbaggies Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 (edited) Just a quick heads up.. I went to layan beach today, the part next to dream. Was told I had to pay 40 bahts. I showed my Thai dl which normally gets me past these tourist charges most places and was told I had to pay... I have Never had to pay on this beach before so not sure if someone just trying their luck.. I didn't wanna risk my bike being damaged if refused to pay so I just went a buy further down the beach Edited November 2, 2016 by swbaggies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuarty Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Where was this? In the parking area behind the beach bar just to the south of Dream Beach Club? As far as I know that whole area is owned by the beach bar (allegedly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swbaggies Posted November 2, 2016 Author Share Posted November 2, 2016 The car park directly adjacent to dream (not through dreams gate)... I've never paid before and been lots of times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJBangkok Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 If you are facing the ocean the area immediately to the left of dream is private property the area to the right of dream is public property. The little car park opposite dream is private property. I have never been asked for money to lark in the area to the right of Dream which is public property. Having said that I've never been ask fir money to park in the area to the left of dream either but I do normally buy something at the restaurant there.

stuarty Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 @AJBangkok I agree with your understanding, but as to how that "private" property ended up being built on at the beachfront, I guess we will have to keep wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swbaggies Posted November 4, 2016 Author Share Posted November 4, 2016 (edited) If your facing dream and the ocean it was the little car park to the right of dream, from memory it is the car park that seems to have a government building on it? .. I've never been asked to pay either Edited November 4, 2016 by swbaggies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yee no brown envelopes changing hands here ???? I use to go to Layan but after (was it Niki it was called when first started?) I don't go there any more. I'm waiting for the day they knock that ugly construction down. But I'm probably in for a long long wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
