Key facts

Schedule
Pattaya City’s 2024–2025 statistics record passenger-boat movements in both directions on the Na Baan and Tawaen routes.
Schedule
The DASTA page describes daily outbound and return service, but its displayed timetable has no clear current update date.
Decision point
A particular day trip remains conditional on live outbound and return sailings plus current marine weather.

What to do

  1. 1

    Confirm a live outbound sailing

    Use a current operator or city channel for the intended date; historical trip counts are not a departure notice.

  2. 2

    Confirm a workable return

    Verify the return leg separately and do not select it from DASTA’s undated displayed timetable.

  3. 3

    Check current marine weather

    Treat live marine conditions as part of the decision instead of relying on normal route history.

Detailed explanation4 short sections

The records show a two-way connection

Pattaya City’s 2024–2025 statistics record passenger-boat movements from Pattaya toward Na Baan and Tawaen and movements back toward Pattaya. That historical record supports the basic structure needed for a same-day visit: travel occurs in both directions.

It does not show which sailing will operate on a future travel date. Monthly movement data are evidence of recorded routes, not a booking screen or departure notice.

The published timetable remains on hold

DASTA describes daily outbound and return service, but its displayed timetable has no clear current update date. The service description can explain why a day trip may be possible; the old times cannot select today’s boat.

This answer therefore repeats no current departure, return time or fare. Those details require a live operator or city confirmation for the intended date.

Pass three checks before committing

Confirm a live outbound sailing, then confirm a return that works on the same date. Treat those as separate checks: route history in both directions is not a guarantee that both legs fit one particular plan.

Check current marine weather as a third gate. TMD supplies the live weather context, while the route sources establish only the historical service structure.

Use a conditional yes

The evidence supports saying that a one-day visit can be possible, not that it is possible on every date. The answer becomes usable only when the day’s outbound, return and marine conditions have all been checked.

If any one of those checks is unresolved, keep the plan unresolved too. Do not fill the gap with the undated timetable or historical trip counts.
