Laem Chabang International Country Club
Laem Chabang International Country Club is a 27-hole Jack Nicklaus design set across 700 acres of diverse terrain in Si Racha, Chonburi — one of six Nicklaus designs in Thailand completed in the early 1990s. The course opened in 1993 and takes its name from the nearby Laem Chabang deep-water port, one of Southeast Asia's busiest container facilities. The three nine-hole loops are named Lake, Mountain, and Valley after the distinct environments through which each is routed, offering golfers a genuine change of character between nines. Night golf from approximately 15:30 is available and popular with Pattaya-based golfers looking to avoid the daytime heat. The all-inclusive pricing covers green fee, caddie, and cart in a single rate.

Siam Country Club Waterside is an 18-hole, par-72 course that opened in 2014 as the fourth course on the SCC Pattaya complex — and the most recently built. At 7,407 yards, it is the longest of the SCC quartet and is designed around extensive water features that influence play on the majority of holes. The official SCC description positions Waterside as the most approachable of the four courses while still meeting the same championship preparation standards as the Old Course and Plantation. Green fees from golf agents are 5,960 THB on weekdays and 6,960 THB on weekends (all-in including caddie and cart) — pricing that places it in the premium tier but still below the Old Course. Booking is through SCC's reservations team directly or via golf agents; the official website does not display rack rates.
