reader Posted September 25, 2017 Posted September 25, 2017 From Pattaya Mail PATTAYA – Beach vendors starting next month no longer will be permitted to sell alcohol. Sanitation chief Wasinpat Chimtin on Sept. 15 informed about 50 Jomtien and Pattaya beach chair vendors of the no-alcohol rules during a briefing on the slew of new regulations put in place by the army this summer. In addition to not being able to sell booze, vendors all must wear aprons, must operate their single plot of chairs themselves, cannot sublease to others and must bid for their plot annually in a drawing. This is apparently being done to project a favorable image during the International Fleet Show in November. http://www.pattayamail.com/news/booze-sales-banned-beach-starting-oct-186806 Quote
Alexx Posted September 25, 2017 Posted September 25, 2017 Pity, alcohol was about the only thing that made swimming in that sewer look like a brilliant idea. santosh108 and ggobkk 2 Quote

Boy69 Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Another nail in the coffin of Dongtan beach,at my next trip I will assure that there is a pool at my hotel don't see a reason to sit at the beach anymore. Quote

spoon Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 that would be great ! Another idea for one great show pieces for the gogobar boy on stage, very hot to see naked men with only apron on stage, and see that erected penis poking through lol Quote
vinapu Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 I actually find more sexy if boys are somewhat dressed, skimpy briefs would do. Complete nudity tastes better in the room than in the bar where I have impression I'm dividing my joy among others while in the room I have boy's charms , whatever they are just for myself. Quote
1moRussian Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 Have not got a clear answer about alcohol selling at the beach since October - but got an idea: perhaps, it is because of the cremation this month? Quote
Travellerdave Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 For me the lack of alcohol on the beach would be not a problem at all. During my recent trip I tried to reduce my consumption so my daytime drink was tea and the Thai word was part of my limited vocabulary - "Cha Lawn". Unlike most of my utterances this always produced the desired beverage. Sitting on the beach in nice weather with a cooling breeze under a concession umbrella drinking a large cup of tea was one of the nicer experiences of my holiday. The lack of shade on Wednesdays and Thursdays and the absence of boys to flirt with, was a definite minus however. One day I watched a gang of workers cleaning the beach. They removed large amounts of plastic and other debris. The general view was that Jomtien was less polluted than the Pattaya one, but I've never seen any evidence to back this up. I have swam in the sea at Dongtan over the years without ill effects but maybe I've just been lucky. The same luck maybe when I topped Boys bareback during my first couple of Pattaya trips 17 years ago, and remained healthy. vinapu 1 Quote
1moRussian Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 My friend, a beach massage guy, replied "it's not true. Everything is OK" - when I asked him about beer at the beach. Although, I don't bet more than 300 baht on it, perhaps he just want more farangs to come there Quote
