Pattaya has a tropical climate. This climate can be divided into two types: a rainy season and a dry season.
The rainy season starts in May and lasts until October. During this period, a lot of rain falls and tropical storms and hurricanes can occur. The dry season (December to March) is the best time to visit Pattaya since the temperature at this time is more pleasant.
To go to Pattaya, the most convenient way is the bus. It will take you 2 hours to catch a bus to Pattaya from Bangkok. You can pick them up at the Ekamai Terminal or the Mochit Terminal.
Otherwise, Pattaya has its airport in Utapao and flights from Koh Samui or Phuket. Surely, this way will cost you more but make you comfortable and time-saving in return.
This is a magnificent wooden temple, built according to ancient tradition and covered with sculpture, a gigantic work of art not to be marked in Pattaya.

Inaugurated in 2003, Underwater World Pattaya is Thailand’s first modern aquarium. It is a huge aquarium where you can walk a glass tunnel with a length of 105 meters including a large number of aquatic species: sharks, tropical fish, sea turtles, etc.
Opened recently in 2013, the Art in Paradise Museum prides itself on being the largest interactive art museum in the world. It is a large interactive art museum where visitors can be part of the artwork and have fun posing for photos.
It is a very spicy salad prepared with green papaya slices crushed with fish sauce, lemon juice and lots of pepper! This salad is a real drug for some Thais, the mixture of peppers with green papaya, lemon juice and the rest of the ingredients has a very tonic effect.
Tom yam, tom yung kung or tom yum is a spicy soup from Thailand or Laos. It is widely served in other Southeast Asian countries and has been popularized around the world. It’s a tasty soup, spicy and comforting!
Fresh and gourmet salad, yum woon sen is a Thai dish of vermicelli and ground pork flavored with fresh herbs, and sprinkled with crushed peanuts and fried shallots.
This is essentially a sauteed pork or chicken dish cooked with lots of basil, garlic, chillies, etc. It’s a perfect meal any time of the day (hangover days included). Like most meals in Thailand, specify the level of pizzaz you want. Otherwise, you may end up with something ridiculously spicy.
These are thick noodles, garnished with a variety of shrimp or chicken (even pork or beef), bean sprouts, egg and tofu, sautéing together in a wok. You can even find Thai street pads more delicious and authentic than in restaurants.
