The Jomtien Beach is located south east of Bangkok and can be reached my fast modern elevated and normal highway. The journey from Bangkok to Jomtien Beach is about 1h 45 mins to 2 hrs by Taxi or Limo. Jomtien Beach is about 20 minutes south of Pattaya. This 6 kilometre long, largely straight beach in south of Pattaya, is the most notable of several beaches south of the resort. The beach is popular with windsurfers 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 is Pattaya Bay. Jomtien is also a major residential area with beachside hotels, bungalow complexes, condominiums and restaurants. The most visible landmark in Jomtien beach is the 56 story Pattaya Park tower, part of the Pattaya Park entertainment complex which also features a water park, roller coaster, monorail and children\’s activities. This may soon be overshadowed by the proposed 91 floor Ocean 1 Tower construction of which is due to start \”in late 2006\”, with completion scheduled for 2010. With an overall height of 367 meters, it would be the tallest building in Thailand and one of the tallest residential buildings in the world.
