01 About this neighborhood

What Sattahip / Far South is for.

Sattahip is the southern district that includes Bang Saray, Na Jomtien, and the area around U-Tapao Pattaya International Airport. It's genuinely quiet — much less developed than Pattaya proper, with cleaner beaches, a working Royal Thai Navy base, and the kind of beachfront village pace that Pattaya hasn't had in 30 years.

For sport, this is the diving and golf end of Pattaya. The largest marina in Southeast Asia (Ocean Marina Yacht Club) is here. Several of the premium dive operators run trips from Bang Saray. Top-tier golf courses (Pattana Sports Resort, St. Andrews 2000, Chee Chan) are mid-Sattahip. And for families wanting a beach escape from Pattaya energy, Bang Saray and Sai Kaew are the quiet beach options.

02 Best for

When to pick Sattahip / Far South.

01

// Diving

Bang Saray is the launching point for many dive trips. Pattaya Scuba Adventures, Seafari, Mermaid's Dive Center all operate from this area.

02

// Premium golf

Pattana Sports Resort, St. Andrews 2000, Chatrium Golf Soi Dao, Chee Chan — top-tier courses within a 30-min drive.

03

// Sailing & marina

Ocean Marina Yacht Club (largest in SE Asia), Royal Varuna Yacht Club. Sailing courses, charter, regattas.

04

// Family beach escape

Bang Saray Beach and Sai Kaew Beach are 30-40 min from Central Pattaya but feel a decade older. Good for kids.

05

// Airport-adjacent stays

U-Tapao Airport is in Sattahip. If you're flying into Pattaya for a sport-focused trip, Sattahip is a 10-min drive vs 60-min into Central Pattaya.

03 Transport & access

How to get there.

Sukhumvit south continues from Pattaya to Sattahip. U-Tapao airport access road. A car or motorbike is essential — baht-bus coverage here is thin to nonexistent. Buses to Sattahip run from Pattaya Klang and Bangkok.

04 Landmarks & orientation

Where you are.

  • Bang Saray Beach (quiet village + beach)
  • Sai Kaew Beach (military beach, public access, very clean)
  • Ocean Marina Yacht Club
  • U-Tapao Pattaya International Airport
  • Royal Thai Navy base + Sattahip Naval Officers Club
  • Khao Chi Chan Buddha Mountain (carved gold Buddha on a cliff)
05 Starter pick

If you're new here.

If the trip is diving or golf, base in Bang Saray, dive from there, and use the proximity to the premium golf courses. If you're flying into U-Tapao for a Muay Thai trip and want a quiet start, spend the first 2 days in Sattahip before moving north to a Pattaya camp.
