Phuket is purely a beach holiday. Excursions in Phuket do not go to any comparison with the mainland. The only excursion is to the places of the tsunami. Pattaya is discos, restaurants, good excursions, shopping. Beautiful beaches only on the islands. You can combine. Spend part of your vacation in Pattaya, then leave for a few days to Koh Chang or Samet. Get all the pleasures - and beautiful clean beaches, discos, restaurants, good excursions.

Look at what time of the year. In Phuket, until the end of September, monsoons, winds, the sea can be dirty. There are no such anamyls in Pattaya. Now many tourists choose Koh Samui, basically my point is that Koh Samui is more exotic than other islands. Again, it all depends on the period. If I fly out right now and have a choice between Phuket and Pattaya, then Phuket is my choice.

Which is better to buy: Ferrari or excavator? :)))))))))))
On the excavator you don’t filth and you won’t abandon show-offs. But you can't dig a pit on a Ferrari.
Pattaya and Phuket is an allegory for a Ferrari and an excavator. Looking at what you need from the rest. If you are active and want to gain impressions, see the country, ride elephants, etc., then this is definitely Pattaya. But there is no sea. Although you can go to the islands. 30 minutes and clean beach. If you only want to lie on the beach, then there is nothing to do in Pattaya, the sea is dirty there. Go to the islands. But now it's clearly not the season. You can combine everything. So many people do it and in my opinion they do it right. 10 days Pattaya, 5 days about. Ko Chang. So you will gain impressions and lie on the island.

"Seeing the country" in Pattaya is absurd. Pattaya is generally like a separate state, it is NOT real Thailand. Elephants, tigers, crocodiles are everywhere, on the islands too. Off-season on the islands of the Andaman coast, in the Gulf of Thailand (with the exception of Koh Chang) is just a good season.

Alfini offers the most excursions from Pattaya. On the islands, there are not even 20% of such routes as from Pattaya. And REAL Thailand is different for everyone.

And from Koh Chang there is an excursion very close to about. Phi Phi? (in beauty) I just would not really like to fly to Phuket for the sake of "one" of my dreams.

I have never seen big waves. But with the rains it will already be stressful at this time, although you may be lucky to see it. But there won't be many of them.

there is no excursion to Phi Phi from Koh Chang. It's too far. You need to fly to Phuket. Although these islands did not impress me and my wife at all. Behind the millions of crowds of people and yachts, the islands are not visible.

something I looked at the time. There will be more rain in September. It will be cool, not hot and fun to swim.

Amir, you, of course, excuse me, but to see the country is not Pattaya. These are Nakhon Sawan, Bangkok, Ayutthaya, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Isan. Musumalnsky south, after all. But to watch prostitutes on the streets of resorts - is this a real country? And, yes, not in Pattaya, you can also ride elephants =)

Waldi don't look too narrowly at my answer. Pattaya is a base where you can drop things in some room. Do not carry them to all the places indicated by you. Nobody says to sit in Pattaya and watch prostitutes. You need to watch the country, not Pattaya, but it is most convenient to be based in Pattaya. And vacation on the islands.
