Ocean sky pattaya
Ocean Sky Pattaya is an evening dinner cruise experience operating out of Bali Hai Pier, offering passengers a combination of a seafood buffet, panoramic coastal views, and a live cabaret-style entertainment show. The cruise runs nightly from 4:00 PM, with boarding typically beginning around 5:00 PM for the first session. It draws a mix of independent travellers and organised tour groups, and is well-circulated across travel booking platforms. Guests can expect an all-you-can-eat seafood buffet served on board, followed by a dance and performance show featuring both male and female performers. Reviewers note that the show itself is a highlight, with the food described as adequate but not exceptional — portions and variety are considered standard for a buffet format. The coastal views, particularly around sunset, add to the overall experience, and clear weather noticeably enhances the cruise. Good to know: Tickets are widely available through third-party booking platforms such as Agoda and Klook, and purchasing at least one day in advance is recommended to secure a spot, particularly on weekends when Chinese tour groups and other organised parties can fill capacity quickly. The venue operates seven days a week during the same evening hours. Those with high expectations for the food specifically may want to temper them and focus on the experience as a whole — the combination of the cruise setting, views, and live show is where the value lies.

Visitor Reviews
Recently, we had the pleasure in experiencing the Bali Hai Pier by taking couple of photos and videos of the panoramic 360 scenic views while waiting for our Ocean Sky Dinner Cruise.🛳️ 5:00pm - We begin with a short speedboat ride to the cruise ship which has two departure times—sunset for a golden-hour glow or evening for a starlit cityscape. 🚤 Upon reaching the big cruise ship from our speedboat ride, we were usher straight up to the 3rd floor to our table on the open air observation deck for views of Pattaya’s shimmering coastline and for photo taking while the crew assemble the lavish buffet lines. 🤤 We were briefly told by the crew that estimated starts and end time for : 1. Fusion Dinner Buffet: 7:30pm - 9:00pm 2. Live performance 7:15pm to 8:30pm [Please see photos] The cruise offers: * Scenic Views * 1.5 hours Dinner Buffet * Live Entertainment * Attentive/ Friendly staff and crew * Pleasant experience On Board Menu: * Seafood🍣🦐🍤🐟🐙🦑 * Salad Bar/ Vegetables 🥗🌽🍅🥕🥒🥦 * Chicken, Grilled meat 🐓🐔🍗🥩🥓🍖 * Fried Noodles & Rice🍜🍝🍜🍛🍚🍙 * Soup, Sushi, Tempura, Desert & many more…🥣🥫🍣🍱🍤🙏🏻🍰🍩🧁🍮🤤😋 As we enjoy our fine dining, we were entertained and captivated by cabaret and macho show while enjoying the ambience of the open air deck. “Perfect for family and friends to experience this unforgetable cruise by Ocean Sky Dinner Cruise in Pattaya!!!” Note & Tips for travellers: * Book ticket in advance & check details. (we purchased our tickets via KLOOK) * Assessable to public transport: (May commute via GRAB/BOLT to Pattaya Port) * Arrive 10-15mins early to avoid paying extra charge for personal speedboat trip. * Photo/ Videos restricted during show: Check with crew/ staff on photo/ video taking (we were lucky to be seated next to stage and was told video/photo taking is okay but do note not to take “LIVE” videos as for privacy to other tourists.) * Persons/ Travellers with medical conditions or pregnant may check with cruise operator as it’s not wheelchair accessible. * Children’s/ infants aged 0-3 years can join free of charge but must sit on laps as no baby-chairs visible. * No outside food or drinks are allowed on board the cruise ship. * May clarify other details while respecting the cruise's rules.

Lots of fun, great food. Beautiful view from the boat especially when the weather is nice outside. All you can eat seafood buffet with a fun show afterwards. There are a lot of Chinese tours that go here so my suggestion is arrive early and get to the buffet first because it will be crushed after they arrive. Also make reservations at least 2 days in advance. Speaking of the show, yes there are ladyboys there but it is very appropriate and modest. No need to worry about young kids.
It was an amazing experience in ocean sky cruise pattaya. The cruise tickets u cn buy online from any attraction site like agoda,klook etc. buy tickets one day prior. There is alcazar cabaret show with dinner which mainly includes non veg food.

Dress Modestly
Cover shoulders and knees at all temples. Carry a light scarf or sarong — some temples lend wraps, but not all. Shoes come off before entering any building with a Buddha image.
Mind Your Feet
Never point your feet at a Buddha image or a monk — it's considered deeply disrespectful. When sitting inside a temple, tuck your feet behind you or to the side.
Ask Before Photographing
Exterior photos are almost always fine, but some interior halls prohibit photography. Look for signs, and never pose irreverently with Buddha images — it's a legal offense in Thailand.
