Pattaya Beach
This is headquarters—the stretch where ferries disgorge passengers, where Walking Street meets the water, where you'll negotiate boat trips and dodge volleyball games. The sand glows almost white under noon sun. Energy runs high; solitude runs elsewhere.

Questions people actually ask about Pattaya Beach.
Is Pattaya Beach on Koh Lipe safe for swimming?
Pattaya Beach is generally safe for swimming, with calm, clear waters and a gradual slope that makes it suitable for most swimmers. The beach can get busy with longtail boats during the day, so stay alert near the shore. During monsoon season (May to October), conditions can be rougher with stronger currents and waves. Jellyfish are occasionally present. Lifeguards are not always on duty, so exercise caution and swim during daylight hours when the beach is more populated.
What is the best time to visit Pattaya Beach Koh Lipe?
The best time to visit Pattaya Beach is during the dry season from November to April, when you'll enjoy sunny weather, calm seas, and excellent visibility for snorkeling. Peak season runs December through February with more crowds but perfect conditions. March and April are hot but less busy. The island largely closes down May to October during monsoon season when seas are rough and many resorts shut. November offers good weather with fewer tourists and better prices.
