Underwater World Pattaya is one of the most exotic ocean aquariums in Asia, offering a unique insight into the marine life of Thailand. Here is how you can reach Underwater World in Pattaya:
Private Car: If you are coming from Bangkok, take Highway No. 7 or the Bangkok-Chonburi-Pattaya Motorway. The journey typically takes around 2 hours. Look for signs directing you towards South Pattaya. The aquarium is located on Sukhumvit Road, about 2 kilometers from South Pattaya intersection.
From Bangkok: Catch a bus from the Eastern Bus Terminal (Ekkamai) or from the Mo Chit Northern Bus Terminal to Pattaya. Once in Pattaya, you can take a local taxi (songthaew or motorbike taxi) to reach Underwater World.
