Punting capital of the world?
Pattaya is a large beach city in Thailand. It is on the east coast of the Gulf of Thailand, about 100 kilometres (62 mi) southeast of Bangkok. It is popular for its beachbeaches, and for the escorts and night life on Walking Street and Soi 6. Other popular places are Soi Boomerang, Soi LK Metro and Treetown. One can get a taxi to Pattaya from Bangkok for about B1400 (£35).
It is relatively large and walking from the north to South south can be 45 min+. The beach on the South side (looking SW) is called Jomtien.
===Overview of venues===
* Girl bars. These are bars where you can meet girls, buy them drinks, and take them for Short term (ST) or Long term (LT).
* Go go bars (a.k.a. Agogos). Like girls bars, but there is a pole dancing or exotic show.
* Gentleman's Clubs. Tend to have a more laid back approach - older WGs although still some lookers - and typically less pressure to play the lady drink game. Many of the GCs have curtained off areas which you can avail yourself of for a few hundred baht with WG/WGs of your choosing.Popular in daytime. https://www.gentsclubs.com/
* Nightclubs. Full on, with more freelancers than bars. Some older punters avoid these.
Of course there is huge overlap, and each place may have its own quirks. And on top, there are massage parlours and soapies.
* Soi 6: A street of bars and Gogos on the northern end. A lot of the bars are owned by Nightwish group, NWG. (e.g. Roxys, Eutopia, Playpen) A bit more pricy. Indies include Fire Bar and Red Point Bar. Smoke and Kisses.
* Soi 7&8: beer bars.
* Walking Street. A street of bars , agogos and gogos and clubs nightclubs with live music on the beach at the southern endof the city. Fahrenheit, Pin Up, Skyfall and of course Windmill.
* LK Metro Alley :Kink, Queen Club, Fcuk bar, Paradise and 25 more.
* Soi Buakhao. Lots of beer bars. Girls to pick up rather than GoGo where younger girls dance. Play Girlz. Red Hot and Blue (gents club)
* Soi Honey: more beer bars.

===Bars===
* Camel Toe, Soi Suk Sabai (thus south and off beaten track)
* Kiss X, Very far east side, so cheaper than the centre. Has a pool.
===Don'ts===
* Russian bars on Walking Street. Avoid. 5 times the price. And no ST or LT. Aimed at rich Japanese or Arabs?
* Follow touts to a ping pong show. These will cost more than e.g. Windmill, with worse looking girls.
