Sex in Pattaya – The Complete Nightlife & Sex FAQ

Pattaya is arguably the sex capital of the world — a 24-hour city where adult fun is part of the economy. From the neon chaos of Walking Street to the raw, no-nonsense short-time action of Soi 6, it’s a place where men from around the world fly in for one reason.

If you’re new to Pattaya, this FAQ will tell you exactly what’s available, where to find it, what to pay, and how to avoid being ripped off.

1. Where is Pattaya’s main red-light area?

The core is Walking Street, stretching from Beach Road to Bali Hai Pier.
It’s wall-to-wall with go-go bars, show bars, BJ lounges, and freelancers pacing the sidewalks.

But Pattaya’s sex scene isn’t only here:

• Soi 6 – Rows of girl bars with rooms upstairs for instant action.
• Soi LK Metro – Smaller go-gos and beer bars with a friendlier pace.
• Beach Road – Lined with freelancers after sunset, especially around the big tree area and in front of the Royal Garden Plaza.

2. What’s the difference between Walking Street, Soi 6, and LK Metro?

They each have a distinct style:

• Walking Street – Best for high-energy go-go action, expensive drinks, sex shows, and top-tier girls.
• Soi 6 – Efficient “in-and-out” fun. Choose a girl, head upstairs, 30–60 minutes later you’re done.
• LK Metro – Somewhere between the two: lively, cheaper than Walking Street, but slower-paced than Soi 6.

3. How much are bar fines in Pattaya?

• Go-go bars: 1,200–2,000 THB (some up to 3,000 for star dancers).
