Walking between Beach Road and Second Road near Hard Rock

[Kenneth Lay]

On Beach Road and Second Road there is a long stretch between Pattaya Klang and Soi 6 where there seems to be no public sois. I tried to use the driveway at Hard Rock and another hotel to walk from Second Road to the beach but it's not permitted.

Is there a way to walk between Beach Road and Second Road somewhere between Soi 6 and Pattaya Klang?

There’s a new “road / path/ parking area” off second Rd across from new Melia hotel (in front of Centric Sea condos) that I suspect leads to back of the new markets that front Beach Rd north of Hard Rock that you may be able to use.

You can walk through Hard Rock hotel from second road, but they wont let you use the side road, they want you to walk through the hotel and pool area for some reason, probably so you pass their cafe, shop and resturant. From beach road to second road they wont let you pass through the hotel but I took the side road that direction and noone stopped me.

I didn't realize you could could go through the hotel without a problem. Lol seems weird when they have a road right there. I wonder if that's really the policy or they just assume you're a guest at the hotel. Either way if it works it works.

I did it everyday for 2 weeks when I stayed at March hotel in 2020 but then you could go through the hotel both ways. I only tried once since about one week ago so might been lucky but say you are going to the cafe and they wont stop you from second road atleast.

Can also walk through the Tropicana hotel roadway next to Trattoria Toscana.

You cannot.  Security will stop you 9/10 times and demand a room key...

This...    This is the only way.  Used it last night as well.   Only problem it's all dirt.  So if it rained or rainy forget about it..

Looks like they've done some landscaping in the last few weeks. Passed by there on Second Road the other day and they've replaced the dirt with flowers and grass now.

Been like that for several weeks now.
