PATTAYA, Thailand – Pattaya Tourist Police demonstrated their commitment to visitor safety by assisting at Bali Hai Pier after rough sea conditions temporarily halted boat departures to Koh Larn.

Following heavy morning rain, red warning flags were raised, preventing small boats from leaving shore until conditions were deemed safe. Tourist Police officers patrolled the pier, advising travelers, monitoring the situation, and helping ensure that no passengers boarded vessels while the sea remained unsafe.



Once weather conditions improved and authorities determined it was safe to proceed, ferry services resumed normal operations, allowing tourists to continue their journeys to Koh Larn. The incident reflects the proactive role of Pattaya Tourist Police, who work alongside other agencies to prioritize the safety of both Thai and international visitors. Whether responding to changing weather, providing travel advice, or assisting during emergencies, officers remain on hand to help ensure tourists can travel with confidence. Visitors requiring assistance can contact the Tourist Police Hotline 1155, available 24 hours a day.
