Ko Loi
Rob's take
"A small island at the end of a causeway off Si Racha, ringed with Chinese and Thai temples, and really an evening trip — the street food market that sets up after dark is the reason to come. Arrive at sunset for the view back over the town, then eat your way along the stalls. Parking is the one headache, so beat the crowd to it."
Ko Loi is a day-trip destination in Pattaya, within the greater Pattaya area of Chon Buri, Thailand. It's rated 4.5★ on Google.
Ko Loi is a small island off Sriracha, reached by a pedestrian bridge or pier, and ringed by colourful multicultural temples. It comes alive in the evening with a large street food market of stalls and food trucks, and draws visitors for its sea breeze, calm atmosphere and sunset views across the town. Best enjoyed early morning or after dark, when it is quiet and relaxing.
