Studies on the occurrence and the important characteristics of Vibrio parahemolyticus were done in the brackish water and sediment from the different parts of Bangkok to Bangpagong and from Bangkok to Samutrasongkram, and on cockles, shrimps, squids and four kinds of marine fish bought from the market. The isolation of Vibrio parahemolyticus from them were made by three different kinds of media to obtain reliable results. The percentage of the isolated bacteria from 182 samples, by TCBS, Leistner and Sakazaki, were 54.8, 39.2 and 31.3, respectively. The occurrence of Vibrio parahemolyticus in the brackish water and marine animals had on average of about 50 percent. All of them were resistant to ampicillin, intermediate to tobramycin, neomycin, tetracycline, kanamycin, streptomycin and also sensitive to erythromycin, nitrofurantoin, sulfamethoxazole trimethoprim and chloramphenicol
