Did You Know?

From Fishing Village to Resort Town

Pattaya was a fishing village until 1959, when a group of American servicemen on leave from Korat rented a house on the beach. Within fifteen years it was one of the largest resort towns in Asia.

The clock: Pattaya keeps UTC+7, three to four hours ahead of the Gulf states and twelve ahead of the American east coast — a gap that shapes who is awake in its bars at what hour.

Pattaya lies at 100.9°E. Its time zone, UTC+7, is built around the 105°E meridian. The 4.1° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 16 minutes ahead of the sun: solar noon arrives at about 12:16 rather than 12:00. The zone holds UTC+7 all year — there is no daylight saving here.

The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 12h 53m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 11h 22m. The swing between them is 1h 31m. Inside the tropics the day length stays within a narrow band all year.

The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Pattaya the sun comes up earliest on 2 June at 05:49, while the latest sunset waits until 12 July at 18:47. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.

The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Pattaya that civil twilight runs about 21 minutes at the equinox.

Every figure in this section is computed from the city's own latitude, longitude and IANA time zone using NOAA solar algorithms (Spencer, 1971), accurate to about ±2 arcminutes below 65° latitude.
