Pattaya has more tennis and badminton than most visitors expect — floodlit hard courts on Pratamnak, covered courts south at Greta, budget badminton halls on the Darkside, and the luxury tier at Fitz Club. Padel and pickleball have their own guide; this page covers tennis, badminton, and multi-racquet clubs in our directory.
