Sightseeing Options

You can windsurf, water-ski, swim, sunbathe, snorkel, sail or take trips to offshore coral islands. Pattaya's main fun beach is at Jomtien, which runs for a distance of about five kilometers. Among the other superb sites worth a visit are the Nong Nooch Tropical Garden, the Pattaya Park Tower, the Hotel & Water Park, and many other interesting attractions.

NONG NOOCH TROPICAL GARDEN
The Golden Buddha
Heading east, 15 min from the center of Pattaya, near Bang Saray is Nong Nooch for those who want to take in a cultural show. Located at km marker 163, on 1300 rai of rolling hills and valleys, and coconut plantations, three shows are scheduled daily. Some prefer to visit the village on their own. The village is 3 km off the main highway on a private road. The morning show at Nong Nooch begins at 10:15 and the afternoon at 15:00 and 15:45. Elephants go through the same acts you see at the Funny Elephant plus Thai classical dances. A private man-made lake for rowing and other highlight. There is a miniature open zoo and aviary, where you can see monkeys pick coconuts at the command of their trainers. Browse through an orchid farm. Two restaurants, one Thai and the other Western serve food and beverages.

CLUB LOONG CHAT

Going to the beach is no longer a problem for water sport lovers now that Horseshoe Point has entered into a business partnership with South Pattaya’s "Club Loong Chat". With this new relationship, guests will have direct access to a variety of sports and recreational facilities as well as many training opportunities being offered by Club Loon Chat. These include the most sought-after “kite-surfing” and “windsurfing” courses that are tailored to the requirements of practically every skill level. And there is no need to bring your own sport gear! On top of that, we also provide four complimentary shuttle services to and from the beach between 9 am and 5 pm daily.
