Pattaya Floating Market

4 Miles Macdonald - 6 months ago

Interesting place to visit and currently free for foreigners which I think is designed to bring back more tourists after the ravages of Covid. The Ticket Office is closed.
A nice collection of shops selling crafts, clothing, food etc. Also a few places with low tables where you sit on the floor and eat.
The area isn't fully open at the moment; access to the rear section of the floating market has been boarded off, but there's still enough to see here to make it a worthwhile visit.

Its a nice place, no questions.. but you can see it had better days already. Many shops are closed still, the part in the back is pretty much empty, taking a boat ride there seems worthless. You just walk around. If it was free, definitely worth a visit.. but foreigners have to pay 200 baht.. and for what you is currently offered, personally I felt.. it was little too much

Well, the place has always been so tourist friendly ,but the entry fees for whole package per person seems a little too high at 800 Baht. But the best being the number of eateries serving ethnic thai cuisine. Taking the 200 Baht package ( walking the floating market) seems a better deal .

This floating market is really old, need some rebuilding. The food were really nice with reasonable prices except for souvenirs like t-shirts. You better buy it in Bangkok if you want to buy many for your friends back home to your country of origin.

One of the best tourist attractions in Thailand is the Pattaya floating market. Shops are located on top of water bodies and some people sell their items on boats, This is quite an experience. Do not forget to try the orange /water melon fresh juice that is usually sold by a lady near the bridge where you are supposed to board the boats. When I visited this place there was a water festival Going on and mind you people will try to pour, sprinkle, spray water on you and you need to take this in an open manner which most Indians don't ????. You can also try the exotic crocodile meat if you are willing to experience something different. Apart from these souvenirs, hand crafted items and mementos can be purchased here.

Note: I arrived at Pattaya Floating Market during one of my early morning 8am bike rides- pure coincidence. I never went inside, in fact, it was closed. My impressions: Overall okay. It gave me the impression of a tourist floating market; it is not like the ‘authentic’ ones that you find elsewhere. Activities per their posters include thai music, sea boxing, and boat rides. It’ kind of like an amusement tourist park. 200 baht to enter and then they have a 800 baht package that includes a meal/ snack/ tour. You can also feed goats for 25 baht. So, it is what it is. If you are looking for an authentic floating market experience, this does not seem to be it. It does seem to provide a decent time and experience for the family overall.
