About this beach
Dongtan Beach runs north from where Thappraya Road meets the Jomtien seafront, towards Pattaya Park at the foot of Pratumnak Hill. The sand is split into vendor-run sections with loungers and umbrellas, backed by a tree-lined walkway. Families use most of the beach, while one section is known as Pattaya's gay beach. An information board on the sand gives first-aid advice for jellyfish stings.
