Everything in Pattaya has a cost.Just a couple of months ago we were in Phuket. I have visited Thailand over 30 times but haven't been to Phuket after the Tsunami.My wife booked a beach resort in Bang Tao beach for a week. as it was on a special. Four of our friends joined in too.Bang Tao has very nice beaches, very clean and not crowded like Patong beachEvery morning at 6.30 we walk in the beach about 4 kms, firm sandy beaches and have a dip. The Andaman Sea is quite warm in the mornings too. The hotels, bars, kiosks are at least a 100m away from the shore line. Nothing is on the beach itself. Unlike in SL where hawkers and some idiots own the beach.Every 100m you get Cannabis Shops which are open till late.  I went in once , there were two girls rolling stuff, They said the prices range from 100 baht to 600 baht. She offered to roll a very low strength one just to try.Note that everything is expensive in Phuket. More than twice the cost in Pattaya or elsewhere. But very much quieter. NIce massage places, prices vary from 200 baht (roadside walk-ins) to 1200 baht at a high end massage place. In the latter places, they wash your feet at the entrance, give a welcome tea and sweets and after the massage again tea with sweets offered.  Daytime the 1200 baht places offer half-price massages.</blockquote>
