Gumkan Practices Roller Skating at Harborland Pattaya

Gumkan Practices Roller Skating at Harborland Pattaya

When talking about Pattaya, many people probably think of the sea, breeze, sunshine, and lively nightlife. But for me, mr.hotsia, Pattaya also has another interesting and equally fun side: "Harborland," a hub of activities for those who love to stay active. Whether it's shopping, dining, or sports activities like roller skating, I recently had the chance to bring "Gumkan" here to learn and practice roller skating firsthand.

Harborland is located in South Pattaya, near Pattaya Beach Road. It’s not just a shopping center but also a meeting point for people of all ages who want to exercise or just find fun activities to do on their day off. I remember when we arrived, the sunlight was soft, the sea breeze was cool and refreshing, and the panoramic sea view made it perfect for outdoor exercise.

For those who have never tried roller skating like Gumkan, I recommend starting at the Harborland practice area because it has a wide, smooth surface—not rough like regular streets. Importantly, there are staff members who closely supervise and provide advice. I also tried skating with Gumkan. Although I have skated before, this was my first time practicing seriously in such a friendly atmosphere.

What impressed me was that the atmosphere here isn’t chaotic like typical tourist areas. It’s peaceful and safe, ideal for families who want to bring their kids to learn new skills, as well as teenagers and working adults looking for stress-relieving activities after work. Especially in the evening when the sun isn’t too hot and the sea breeze gently touches your face, making roller skating much more enjoyable.

While Gumkan was practicing, I took the opportunity to explore around Harborland and found many charming restaurants and cafes. Some serve fresh seafood because Harborland is close to Koh Larn Pier, a famous seafood source in Pattaya. If you enjoy a chill seaside atmosphere, I recommend finding time to relax with a coffee or try some meals here.

Playing roller skating at Harborland is also a great chance for me to see another side of Pattaya—not just the hustle of walking streets or the nightlife club lights, but a space open to everyone who wants to spend their free time meaningfully and healthily. For anyone planning a trip to Pattaya and looking for new activities, I think roller skating at Harborland is a worthwhile and very fun option.

Getting to Harborland Pattaya is not difficult at all. From Bangkok, it takes about 2 hours by car, or there are plenty of van services available. If you want to visit other places afterward, I recommend readingTraveling Chonburi, Bang Saen, Pattayawhich I have written before. It will help you get an overview of tourist spots and activities around Chonburi, including Pattaya.

After practicing, Gumkan and I didn’t miss the chance to enjoy fresh and delicious seafood in this area. Pattaya is famous for its seafood just like Bang Saen or Sattahip. Harborland itself has restaurants known for freshness and flavor. I especially liked dishes using local ingredients combined with the chef’s creativity.

If you are interested in excellent breakfast in Pattaya, I, mr.hotsia, recommend tryingSiam Bayshorewhich is a hotel offering a comprehensive breakfast buffet with fresh honey for tourists to enjoy unlimited. Besides that, you can also sip wine and eat seafood by the sea. The atmosphere is wonderful, perfect for starting a fresh new day.

I, mr.hotsia, want you to come and experience new things here yourself. I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.
