As
everybody knows, Pattaya is the hub of water sports. While enjoy these
sports in Pattaya, tips mentioned below would come handy. This travel
advice would keep you safe and help you in extracting the most out of
your water sports tour.
Parasailing
Follow the instructions whether you are a novice or an expert. Never
take part in sport on windy days for your boat could overturn. Safety is
a key factor while parasailing experience. If you are a novice, never go
in the sea without an experienced instructor.
Sailing
Avoid sailing on rainy days. It could be dangerous. Most popular boats
for hire are small Lasers, Prindles and Hobie Cats. Make sure before
leaving the coast with these boats that you are able to handle these
them.
Diving
Follow what your instructors have told you. Remember not to dive in
shallow waters. Several diving courses are available in Pattaya. These
range from one to four days, depending upon the proficiency one desires
to reach and the type of diving one wants to learn. The islands far from
the shore take longer to reach but are lot quieter and do not suffer
from the speedboat and jet-ski traffic of the islands nearer to Pattaya.
Swimming
Follow the general rule. Don't go into the sea if you find the sea
rough. It's better to have a lifeguard with you.
Water Skiing
Freshwater skiing can be enjoyed at the Lakeland Cable Water Ski on
Sukhumvit Highway. It could be good for beginners to commence their
experience with water skiing.
Fishing
You can fish in local fishing parks which are ponds well-stocked with
local fish. Some parks charge for fish caught by the kilo, if one wants
to take fish away. For bigger fishes, you could fish in Mekong river.
Offshore fish trips are also organized by several operators.
Wind Surfing
October to June are the best months for wind surfing. You can enjoy
competitions staged by Pattaya Windsurfing Club.
