Head south of central Pattaya for a leisurely walk along Jomtien’s long coast. Accommodation and restaurants line the seaside road, making it easy to rest by the beach and go out for a meal. Come with family or your partner when you want time on a different shore from the city centre. Start with the sand nearest your accommodation.
Representative beach location · Pins represent a beach, bay or village. Read the list below for access and swimming conditions; a pin does not mark an entrance, car park or swimming zone.
Search for ‘Jomtien Beach’. Make sure your destination is on the coast rather than at Jomtien Bus Terminal, and give your driver your hotel or meeting restaurant’s name. If also visiting Pattaya’s Beach Road, allow time to travel between the two beaches.

Time beside the sea

A different shore south of central Pattaya
Jomtien is the long coastline south of Pattaya Beach. Restaurants and accommodation by the seaside road make it easy to eat after a walk. Atmosphere and nearby facilities vary along its length. Where water sports operate, keep clear of boats and equipment when swimming.
Swimming, waves and local conditions
Keep away from water sports equipment and use only locally permitted swimming areas. On arrival, look at the day’s flags and instructions before entering the water.
Do not swim while red flags are flying. Read the marine forecast before leaving and follow local swimming instructions after arrival. Waves and weather may delay or cancel boat trips, so ask about bad-weather conditions when booking.
Frequently asked questions
Who would enjoy Jomtien?
It suits travellers who want to relax on a different coastline after exploring central Pattaya. Walk on the long sandy beach and eat near the seaside road. Staying nearby makes a walk and a meal possible without going far. Atmosphere and facilities differ along the shore.
Is Jomtien Bus Terminal right on the beach?
The terminal and beach are different places. Search for Jomtien Beach and specify your hotel or meeting restaurant. You still need to travel to the beach after arriving at the bus terminal.
Can I enter the water when there is a red flag?
No. A red flag means swimming is prohibited. Even if the sea looks calm, stay out of the water and spend your time on the shore.
