Floating Village (1 Km from the estate)
Pattaya Floating Market is located 2 km from our
Village on the Sukhunvit Road in the direction of Rayong
(Not Bangkok!) Alternatively get a light blue or white baht bus
on the Sukhumvit and pay 10 baht per person. If driving you can
park at the front of the markets or at the rear. They made a lot
of new attractions on the backside.
Pattaya Floating Market has been developed on the
site of the Lake View Restaurant and it claims to the largest
floating market in the Eastern Region. It covers an area of
100,000sqm.
The aim of the market is to capture the old way
of Thai life. The constructions are made of teak. Items and food
are available from the four regions of Thailand. The area is
divided into four areas reflecting the represent four region of
Thailand, namely North, Central, North Eastern and Southern.
Many of the shops sell art and craft items.
Other than shopping and eating there are other
activities. Boats are available for rent to get a slightly
different view of the development. Don't forget to feed the baby
elefant and for the kids it's a must to give some babt goats
milk as if it were babies :)
The use of the words 'floating market' is a bitt
taken out of his goal. Yes, there are boats from which you can
buy food. However, most of the shopping is found on platforms
constructed over the lake. But iI think it's a must to go there
to taste the Thai Culture and to try drinks and tasty nibbits
made on the "Upcountry Way"

Underwater World (800 meters form the
estate)
The Underwater World Pattaya is in reality
in JomTien only 1,5 km far away from our
Village in the middle from the shopping
Centres MAKRO and Tesco/LOTUS and is the
trendiest ocean aquarium in Asia. It is in
an enclosed area as a big tunnel that gives
you the feeling be in the depths of seas.
Actually it is a pedestrian tunnel that has
been made using acrylic that is 100 meters
long and 6.4 centimeters thick.
The whole area of the Underwater World
Pattaya is 12 Rais. It is placed in a
structure that can be said to be similar to
big circus tents. There are around 2,500
marine animals − a number that is made up
of over 200 different species from Thailand
itself. There are various other rare
creatures that have been brought in from
different locations of the globe. The
visitors should see the shovelnose ray that
is a hybrid of a shark and a stingray.
Some of the various species of marine life
that you would be seeing at the Underwater
World Pattaya are as follows: Otters, Reef
Fishes, Rays, Sharks, Eagle rays, Moray eels
and many many other
Opening Hours : 9 a.m. to 6
p.m. daily (last admission 5.30 p.m.)
This fantastic marine structure is
interesting indeed. It also has a lovely
souvenir shop and when it gives you a good
Thai feeling you can after that go to LOTUS
to enjoy a nice and cheap Thai meal in their
food Court
or go the other way to the MAKRO to enjoy
one of the varied fantastic coffees with a
