webfact Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Last hurrah before the school term starts! Bang Saen packed solid Picture: 77kaoded Thai media 77kaoded reported that the resort of Bang Saen in Chonburi was packed solid with visitors on Sunday. The beach is particularly popular with Thais, notes Thaivisa. The traffic was very bad from the Sukhumvit Road turnoff all the way along the beach. The maximum parking number on the beach was reached and people found themselves split up and looking for places on the second road back. Local police said it was exceptionally busy. Picture: 77kaoded The media suggested that parents were taking their children out before the much awaited and delayed start of term begins for most children on Wednesday. The tourist police in Bang Saen reminded people that there was a drinking ban on the beach and people should not drink and drive. They too noted that the area had been very busy.

If there were fifty in a bar like that, plod would have be all over them, smelling a money-making opportunity. Having said that, I thought they had been pouncing on ferangs on Pattaya beach, or is that all over now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caldera Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Ah, the beach drinking ban. Useless, as the 7/11s across the road sell alcohol. The beach vendors happily supply ice, cups and food to go with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebell Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Bang Saen cops are even more invisible than my local Pattaya cops; at least you see them here on bandit duty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
