Etiquette
Do not be shocked if Thai people are swimming fully clothed, it is not uncommon. Thai people are private and generally do not show intimate areas in public. Though they understand that other cultures are not as modest, do not be surprised if a particularly skimpy bathing suit gets second looks.
It is not appropriate to wear a bathing suit to a temple or any place that business will be transacted.
Enjoy the wonderful beaches, pools and other water sports of Pattaya!
