Pratumnak Beach
Rob's take
"The little beach between the two big ones, tucked below Pratumnak Hill and my local — a small, sheltered cove that stays calm when the others are heaving. It gets busy at weekends with Thai families picnicking, which is half its charm. Come early for a quiet swim, or late for the sunset."
Pratumnak Beach is a beach or beach club in Pattaya, within the greater Pattaya area of Chon Buri, Thailand. It's rated 4.3★ on Google.
Pratumnak Beach is a quiet, sandy stretch on Pattaya's Pratumnak headland, set apart from the busier city beaches. It draws visitors looking to relax with a drink, swim and soak up the sun, and it is a well-regarded spot for watching the sunset. Access is free, though you may want to bring your own drinks and a beach mat.
