Jomtien Beach
This 6-kilometre long, largely straight beach, some
4 kilometres south of Pattaya, is the most notable
of several beaches south of the resort. The beach
is popular with windsurfers and watersports enthusiasts,
largely because the area enjoys brisk and fresh breezes
sweeping island from the Thai Gulf, and because the
seas are less congested with boats than is Pattaya
Bay. Jomtien is also a major residential area with
beacheside hotels, bungalow complexes, condominiums
and restaurants.
