Prices are quite the same everywhere in Sri Lanka. And there's nothing like Pattaya. The most funny places in Sri Lanka are Hikkaduwa, Mirissa and Weligama.

Is there something cheap and funny like Pattaya, but in Sri Lanka?

Yala is beautiful. There ara jeep salaries on a day trip basis. Leopards, elephants and so on. Even better than Kenia or Tansania!
