Mentioning the beach is a bit obvious, but despite
the occasional bad press, Patong’s beach
attracted the first tourists. And indeed, Patong
has a beautiful beach with white sand and blue
water during the high season. There are a few
restaurants on the beach as well. Of course, the
central area can be crowded and noisy with too
many jet skis and parasailing boats, but not
always. People often make a final judgement
based on a single bad experience. The north part
of the beach is quieter, and the water is lovely. If
you come during the low season, you might be
surprised by how quiet it can be. So if you picked
Patong for your holidays because you want
everything accessible, you would enjoy the beach.
here are many things to do in Patong Beach beyond the much-talked-
about nightlife and the ever-going party. Patong is full of activities for
families, couples, singles and friends, and even a few attractions most
people don’t know yet.
We will not go into details about nightlife but mostly focus on the real
activities, the things you can mostly do during the daytime (and in case
of rain too!).
