Never watch Dans output, something a bit too intense about him to like.

I like staying over in Jomtien.  It's a lot quieter yet if you want to go over the hill to Pattaya it is easy to do.

It's really getting kind of silly how many guys are hustling on YouTube, trying to support themselves in Pattaya with claims of special knowledge and all the secrets of living in Thailand.  Watch twenty different videos, get twenty different takes on everything from the cost and tricks of getting visas to getting girls, good and otherwise, cheap but deluxe hotels, condos, meals and baht buses.  More guys seem to be walking around soi Buakhao with cameras on sticks than there are Viagra vendors.  I actually listened as one explained that in his one month in Pattaya, he had learned all there was to know and his video was all anybody needed to watch..."Oh, and please donate to my Patreon so I can continue to share my wisdom"...

It’s actually a bit awkward getting there, as you cannot enter via Jomtien Beach Road. You have to go out on to Sukhumvit and then do a U-turn. Just inland of where he is wandering is a little fishing village which you can reach from Jomtien Beach Road. Therein is Lung Sawai 2; a seafood restaurant.  Recommended.

NaJomtien is a little ambiguous isn't it? It can mean the area between Jomtien and Bang Saray  or it can mean the area north of the Police box in the center of Jomtien beach. I only know about the later, a quiet place full of seafood restaurants .

If you know where the Na Jomtien police station is, it’s west of there. But, you cannot reach it from there as there is a body of water with fishing vessels. You have to enter via the Sukhumvit road. Though west of the police station is the restaurant that I mentioned. It’s where the fishing boats are usually situated. You don’t need to go via Sukhumvit to gain access.

I have a lot of pals who live over there, wax lyrical about walking to immigration, cheap breakfasts and sea views. Although I have heard trips into Pattaya can be not so easy... with roadworks in a few places that never seem to end.

I live just off Jomtien beach and indeed, it is another level of quiet and open space with a wide variety of dining and entertainment options..

As to convenient access to Pattaya, I took the Baht bus yesterday from Jomtien beach Rd and was at the South Pattaya intersection within 15 minutes.  The worst of the construction along Trappahya Rd is finally completed,  The endless project on Pattaya 2nd Rd shown no signs of any kind of progress but once past that, clear sailing.
