Patong is beach life
during the day and crazy nightlife after nightfall.
The idea of the
whole spectacle is
..don't think - have fun !!
Along of Patong beach road
and the small roads branching off the real
helter skelter is on. Many people try to
carve out a niche where they could put something
on display and have some sales. This is on day
and night, now a little bit more regulated since
at about 2 am its time to close. Until last year
-2007- business was on 24 hours.
Patong Beach
Late morning the
first sun seeker are out on Patong beach, maybe
with a hang over from last night since beer is
cheap, a small bottle of Heineken is usually
only about baht 80,- in the bars, this moves down to baht
60,- for the local beer Singh and beer Chang.
Most of the time
the weather is great, from November to May
its even greater and there are so many girls
around, its a man's worlds out at Patong.
Some early out
guys do some jogging along the beach and
some fat ugly women from Isaan quarrel over
where to place their deckchairs and some mats to
place the foreigners in the afternoon for
massage. Beach massage is in,
all the time the
women run around and scream - massage.
Patong by Parachute
Maybe you like a
lift with a parachute via pulling with the
speedboat, do a ride with the jet ski, this
is regulated and limited now after plenty of
terrible accidents happen, of the type run over
the head etc. and nobody claims the body
afterwards.
Just below the
horizon of Patong Beach is a huge cruise ship,
some sai boats are already around and some
people swim and snorkel. Small travel agent
offices are around everywhere in Patong to offer
daytrips for diving and snorkeling plus live
aboard excursions into the island world of the
Andaman Sea, mainly
Patong Beach horizon cruise ship
north of Phuket at
places like the Similan Archipelago, Surin
Islands or even further north into the Mergui
Archipelago in Myanmar or Burma. A daytrip out
of Patong could be done to coral island and the
other small Island around Phuket.
Patong Beach
Panorama
You will find a
strange philosophy around here, most people wont
care about anything, everyone let his "pig" out, no
joke.
Patong Beach Tsunami
Patong Beach Tsunami Car
At about
lunchtime at Patong Beach all good
deckchairs are rented out for the day and the
sun does the job.
Luckily the Tsunami hit
in the morning and
not after lunchtime that would have brought a
massacre since Patong Beach was more or less the
worst hit area in Phuket due to the underwater
topography. Patong Beach Tsunami run
for your life

opposite side of the Patong Beach road are
myriads of restaurants
and

restaurants are in the majority naturally, but also
all kind of fast food of the
McDonald type. Plus textile and
cloth shops, other shops selling
CD's, DVD's dirt cheap and all kind
of
fake Nike and other brands shoes and
hand bags. Copy watches of Rolex on
other brands imported from China are
offered on every "second" corner.
There are also quiet parts at
Patong Beach, in particular at
the south end, where longtail boats
are parked waiting for some
tourists.

Patong Beach Massage Ladies
Patong road side Gallery
Patong Beach massage is very
popular among the tourists relaxing
on the beach. Almost all Patong
massage ladies are from somewhere in
northern Thailand. Tough fat middle
aged women with a strong and steady
grip. They treat you for an hour,
after you need 2 hour to relax from
the massage.

Patong is hard to beat in terms
of the diversity of restaurants and
food offered practically at almost
every corner.
There are restaurants of any
kind. Thai, Japanese, Chinese,
French, Italian, Arab, Russian,
German, Austrian, Burger,
Vegetarian, Indian, Steak, Barbecue,
Seafood, Pizza,
A little bit
further into the concrete and makeshift shelter
from wood, plastic and metal sheets, jungle are
plenty of other bars and noodle stalls.
In between are
jewelry shops, bookshops and some Thai guys
who try to place some strange creatures of the
small dragon type on your shoulder, make a photo
and give some money is their message.
At about 3 pm the
first guys with the red skin already hang around
in the small bars along Bangla Road and get
their first beers uploaded, the TV screams,
the DVD bang out the latest English songs and
also the first girls move in on a early hunt
for "farangs", most of the Thai ladies are
here for business.
But the real thing at Patong is
emerging when the sun disappears,
darkness creeps in and the
nightshift starts.

Patong nightlife ladies and young
guys offer their services
The center of
Patong (video) nightlife gravity is Bangla Road,
at
daytime full of delivery pick up's, coming to life
after 8 pm. Patong bars, go go
nightclubs, open air bars along the road and the
alleys branching off Bangla Road.
Every evening
probably around 5.000 ladies and young guys
from all over Thailand over their services to
thousands of tourists from all over the world.
Dozens of
mini-skirted ladies parade along Bangla Road, Patong's main fun zone. Some "farang"
have a little flirt with them, sometimes
followed by action in one of the many cheap
hotels behind the eastern end of Bangla Road.
Others stare glumly into their Heineken beers or
to some pool shoots. Videos are
here
The bars pumping obscure and well-known songs
through their speakers,
the problem is, every bar do their own music which
quickly become a acoustic disaster, sometimes it
needs some earplugs,
many people
don't know when enough is enough.
