Pattaya Floating Market

★ 3.9 (27,879 reviews) 🛍️ Shopping 📍 Pattaya

Rob's take

"More polished tourist attraction than working market, but it's a pleasant, shaded couple of hours and the boat-noodle stalls are the real draw. Go for the food and the photos, haggle on the handicrafts, and skip the paid add-ons. Late afternoon is cooler and prettier than the midday coach crowds."

Pattaya Floating Market is a shopping spot in Pattaya, within the greater Pattaya area of Chon Buri, Thailand. It's rated 3.9★ on Google. Open daily, 9:00 AM–7:00 PM.

Pattaya Floating Market is a canal-side attraction where wooden walkways and terraced shops sell Thai handicrafts, silk, souvenirs and street food such as fried coconut pancakes and mango sticky rice. Small boat rides along the canals are a highlight, and covered terraces let you browse in sun or rain. It stays open until 7 PM, and evenings are a pleasant time to stroll.
