The urban myth that Pattaya beach is "dirty"

[socal]

Neither of the posts you mentioned refer to a tropical beach tourist destination though. And, Socal's point in the OP was saying that Pattaya beach isn't dirty.

This topic has meandered more than the Thames. At some point there were discussions regarding the cause of the beach being dirty or not. There were also discussions regarding the possible consequences of polluted or "possibly" unpolluted water.

References to the severity of the Pollution were gauged against other "beaches" in other countries.

My two recent posts have illustrated that the causes of the "possible" pollution or consequences of actual water pollution are not only happening in Pattaya but elsewhere around the world.

If of course one should only highlight problems in Pattaya or Thailand, please let me and others know so that we will not include references to known similarities.

The discussion is whether or not Pattaya beach is dirty.
Not whether other places are also dirty or the causes of pollution generally,
The discussion is specific. Pattaya beach.

"Other places" are the only thing to gauge Pattaya beach against. You cant gauge Pattaya beach against a glass of water.

thats the most ridiculous statement made in this thread.

[pickel]

Isn't dirty meaning no more dirty then any other beach then yes, I stand by that. Yet to hear somebody prove otherwise.

Your OP title insinuates fairly strongly that it isn't dirty you fucking idiot. In fact your first post says this:

The beach is not dirty

Quit moving the goal posts, it makes you look like more of a fool than you really are.

It isn't dirty.

What is your point ? That all other beaches in the world are as clean as a fucking bottle of drinking water ?

I represent that! There has been no proof offered that he is a Canadian!

I would very much like to point out that if indeed he is a Canadian; the ideas, thoughts, dribble, hateful, sexist, idiotic, comments made by Social in no way reflect the values and beliefs of the other 30 million Canadians.

The point is, some beaches are dirty. You said Pattaya wasn't one of them.

[pickel]

WTF are you on Socal? Do you not understand the difference between "it isn't dirty" and "it isn't more dirty than any other beach"? And yet, you are so naive to not realize it is both?

Dirty as in, unsafe to swim by international standards, no.

Define "isn't dirty" for fuck sakes.

define "clean beach" for fuck sakes.

Dont post pictures of Koh Larn and say its Pattaya.

water

[nidhogg]

^ or even Koh Lipe.....

[aging one]

Yeah!!!

The problem is, he believed that was Pattaya, which means he's never been to Pattaya, so he hasn't a clue what he's talking about. (and zero credibility)

I do agree its a bit weird. Nobody, just nobody who has actually been to Pattaya could believe that that picture was Pattaya (eastern seaboard pattaya).

I was there this year you lunatics. I have been there many times.

I quickly did an image search and posted that pic because the caption said "Pattaya water." It still does. I just assumed it was the island far out which could be considered Pattaya water.

Awaiting the definition of "clean beach water".....

Casuarina joins list of dirty beaches

The Northern Territory Health Department is urging people to stay out of the water at five popular Darwin beaches this long weekend.
Casuarina is the latest beach to be closed after tests confirmed unsafe levels of E.coli in the water.
The department has not ruled out human waste as the cause.

So what you are saying is that Dubai has a dirty beach! So that means Pattaya has a dirty beach.

So in degrees of dirt would you say that dirt is dirt nothing like a little dirty, to extremely dirty. Also What about standards! In many western countries very stringent measures are taken to protect the public. Could you post Pattaya results for ocean water purity for the last 2 years?

Doubt it, Very hard to find, many other resort towns world wide post theirs so that it attracts visitors who know that if the water is contaminated then beaches will be closed. Other countries do not publish results due to the level of contamination and the resulting potential loss of revenue. Anyway good luck with proving that Pattaya has clean sea water.

555, can't believe this thread is still going! You guys will never convince Socal of the obvious so why bother?

Your right. Mostly I think Social is a troll, since it would be hard to imagine anybody so detached from reality could manage to tie their shoe laces every morning.

I have a protestant friend from Belfast, think I'll try and convince him that King Billie had it wrong
