Regions
Pattaya and Chonburi
The courses most visitors mean when they say "Pattaya golf" sit in Chonburi province, often in Bang Lamung, rather than on the beach itself. Siam Country Club is the complex this book covers in detail. It opened in 1971 and now has several courses on the same property.
The drive from central Pattaya is short by Thai standards, often around twenty to twenty-five minutes according to the club, when the roads are clear. From Bangkok the usual route is the motorway toward Chonburi. Times depend on the hour you leave.
This region has many other clubs. This yardage book does not list every one of them. If a course is not in the index, that is a limit of the book, not a judgement of the course.
