Floods in Pattaya

Join your hosts Alex and Mike for a deep dive into one of Thailand’s most persistent, yet often overlooked, challenges: the flash floods in Pattaya. On this episode of All About Thailand, we move past the vibrant beaches and famous nightlife to examine the intense monsoon downpours that routinely turn city streets into canals. We break down the core issues, from outdated drainage infrastructure and rapid urbanization to the significant economic impact on Pattaya's vital tourism sector, and discuss what residents and local authorities are doing to cope with the deluge.
