My last post talks about my chosen hotel in Patong beach, now i want to show you how the Patong beach looks like not the neighborhood or bangla road but the "beach itself". Know how what to expect and everything.
1. BEACH FRONT
That's how Patong beach looks like - bunch of beach umbrellas and chair for THB 100, yes! It not for free! Behind it are typical asian food stalls such as juices for TBH 150. Everything here is pricey, that's how they take advantage. Now you could expect it. Most of European tourist doesn't really buy it, you can see them planking on sand. But since i don't really intend to get dirty and such, i'd rather pay THB100 plus it also helps the community.
2. HENNA TATTOO
Don't be fooled like me, i can't believe i let this guy drew me the worst henna tattoo i've ever had for THB1,000. I laughed so hard after it was done, i even asked him to add more shades and all but then that's the best he can make out of my TBH 1,000. I felt like i was scammed in a way.
Once you get there bunch of locals will come to you and offer you different things such as Chairs, Tattoo, Sunscreen, braids and so on and so forth. The only advise i could give is to look away, don't ever lock eyes with any of them otherwise they'll all come to you. Better bring your own drinks and food and towels.
3.WATER SPORTS
If you don't want to go Coral island for some water activities, not to worry Patong beach offer the same thing. See below photo for prices.
