In a move to ring in the New Year with a bang, Pattaya has given the green light for beach umbrella operators to stay open overnight on New Year’s Eve.
In a meeting chaired by Deputy Mayor Wuttisak Rermkijakarn on December 21, set the stage for exciting changes in the beach umbrella scene. Over 150 operators, along with top city officials, gathered to learn about the fresh regulations that promise to redefine beachfront experiences for tourists.
Wuttisak unveiled the new rules, specifying that all beach umbrellas must conform to a consistent size of 9×7 metres. Operators are now required to maintain a neat storage routine after each day of operation, ensuring a pristine beach environment. The permitted business hours have been adjusted, spanning from 6am to 8pm on weekdays and stretching to 9pm on weekends and holidays.
But the real game-changer…
