Water fun in Pattaya
With the rising temperature in Thailand, we naturally look for cooling in all kinds of ways. You can sit in a shady spot near your accommodation with your feet in a basin of water or take a dip in the swimming pool, if you have one available at your house or hotel.
If not, there are several hotels in Pattaya where you can use their swimming pool for a small fee. Some of them are located in a beautiful garden (Marriot, Imperial, Basaya).
The beach
Then there are the beaches, where you can choose from different options. First I mention the beach of Pattaya itself, but if you live or stay in Jomtien you also have the beach close by. The least known, but very attractive, because quiet, is the Wong Amat in Naklua.
Water Parks
In and around Pattaya you have no less than four water parks, large swimming pools with all kinds of attractions for the whole family. One is closer to Pattaya than the other, one is more expensive than the other. We have listed them for you with a short video, more information about prices, location, etc. can be found on the individual websites.

About this blogger
-
Bert Gringhuis (1945), born and raised in Almelo in the beautiful Twente. Later lived for many years in Amsterdam and Alkmaar, working in export for various companies. I first came to Thailand in 1980 and immediately fell in love with the country. Been back many times since then and moved to Thailand after my (early) retirement as a widower. I have been living there for 22 years now with my somewhat younger Thai lady Poopae.
My first experiences in Thailand as a kind of newsletter sent to family, friends and acquaintances, which later appeared under the name Gringo on Thailandblog. Many, many articles followed those first stories and that has grown into an almost daily hobby.
In the Netherlands still an avid footballer and football referee, but the years are starting to tell and in Thailand still avid, but the pool billiards is really of inferior quality, ha ha!
