My Jomtien... Pattaya Thailand

Long before Pattaya became a famous destination - Jomtien Beach had already carved a niche of its own, at least among the local beachgoers who adored it for its pearly white sands and long straight beach.

Albeit a little late, there’s a renewed tourist interest in Jomtien from around the World. On an ordinary day, the resort looks like a busy carnival ground with colorful umbrellas dotting the whole stretch of the beach and sun worshippers in all kinds of swimwear-spicing up the scene. An interesting foreground to the huge palms, flood lit at night overhead with the Gulfs gentle breezes whispering in your ears.
omtien was an old fishing village, a great favorite picnic destination among the Bangkok residents evidence of which can be seen on any Thai public holiday!
Not so much of a water sport center then, this distinction came much later.
Today, Jomtien is a much more popular destination, the six-kilometers of largely straight beach, located just around the headland from Pattaya is popular with many water sports enthusiasts. It is also quieter and more relaxing than Pattaya Beach, shop’s, restaurants and the occasional bar are available along the road that runs parallel with the beach.
Jomtien and Pattaya has many expatriate residents and is an expanding International tourist resort, hence you will find many of the vendors providing services speak English with signboards in English, German.
But where ever you go you will be welcomed by a wide Thai smile for sure.
