Bathe in the Neon Glow – Bioluminescent Plankton (1 hour drive from Pattaya).
Each rainy season (from June until July), Bang Saen Beach is thwarted by plankton blooms. During the day, these turn the water from a refreshing blue to a swampy green. The beach also takes on a fishy smell.

Ready to escape the congestion of Bangkok and Pattaya? Head to the beautiful Golden Meadow of Rayong where a carpet of yellow-green shrubs blankets the landscape. What was once a booming shrimping town is now a tourist center. It’s shrimp stocks were completely wiped out by overfishing, leaving little choice for fishermen than to move elsewhere. In the absence of these environmental pressures, the mangrove estuary here has thrived. Today, there is a boardwalk and a few look-out points where you and your friends can take gorgeous photos of the golden meadow.
