Overview

Central Marina sits on Pattaya Second Road in front of Soi 2 and Soi 3 in North Pattaya. The site began operating as a Big C hypermarket (long known locally as Big C North Pattaya or Big C Extra Central Pattaya) in July 1995, and was reworked into Central Marina by CPN (Central Pattana) after a large-scale renovation, becoming CPN's first shopping centre in Pattaya. The complex carries a Fisherman Village theme across roughly 132 shops, combining a Big C Hypermarket, an SF Cinema multiplex, a seafood market and an outdoor market -- practical, everyday shopping without the beachfront tourist mark-up.
