Like any popular seaside holiday resort, Pattaya has plenty of activities to amuse and amaze, both in and out of the water. Among the most popular pursuits are bungy-jumping, paragliding, jet-skiing, golf, cycling, fishing and elephant rides. Visitors can also whizz round the track at the Pattaya Kart Speedway or try their hand at one of numerous indoor bowling alleys. Holidaymakers who enjoy soaking up local culture can sign up for yoga, tai chi or Thai boxing courses, take a Thai language or cookery course, or indulge in some relaxing spa treatments, massages or meditation groups.Pattaya is also a popular place for scuba diving in Thailand. The area is sheltered from the monsoons that decrease visibility in other areas, meaning diving is a year-round activity in Pattaya. There are several sites for wreck diving, considered the highlight of diving in Pattaya, but there are many other excellent dive sites, including the popular Koh Man Winchai. Divers in Pattaya are likely to encounter a variety of marine life, including octopus, clownfish, stingrays, eels and tawny nurse sharks.
