Jomtien Beach Pattaya hotel and accommodation hotels
guide
 As
is so often the case in Thailand, you will see several different spellings
of "Jomtien". This district, with its 6km beach, is divided
off form the rest of Pattaya by the hill which rises to the back of South
Pattaya. Drive over the hill, past the big Buddha and the Royal Cliff
Hotel, and down into the relatively quiet Jomtien. The beach is popular
with windsurfs and water sports enthusiasts, largely because the area
enjoys brisk and fresh breezes sweeping inland from the Thai Gulf, and
because the seas are less congested with boats than in Pattaya Bay. This
is also the place to relax for a suntan, of go for long early morning
or sunset walks along the oceanfront. There is little in the way of shopping
or beer - bars at Jomtien, which is essentially a residential area with
beachside hotels, bungalow complexes, condominiums and restaurants. Jomtien
has its own very distinctive gay beach, accessed by turning right at the
bottom of the hill; for all other attractions, turn left.
