Tourists Warned About Dangerous Slope in Na Jomtien Municipality Due to Beach Erosion

The local government of Na Jomtien has put up warning signs for tourists about a perilous incline at the Na Jomtien Beach, brought about by erosion. The signs advise people frequenting the beach to stay clear of the area for the time being.

 

Due to the effects of monsoon waves and robust winds, a significant portion of the beach (around 1,000 meters in length) has seen severe erosion. This has resulted in a sharp incline that's as tall as 1.5-2 meters.

 

The uneven sand in the eroded area presents a safety risk for locals and tourists alike. Because of this, authorities are insisting that tourists particularly stay away from the area during the night when visibility is low.

Hopefully these signs will work same well as the red flags on beaches. 

They are not very good at civil engineering....

Wasn't this already reported here ?   or is another round of erosion ?

Yeah we went through all this with Pattaya a decade or so ago........

Really dangerous is the road one has to cross to get to the beach.

Bali continually receives Pattaya's sand donation on a twice-a-year basis.  Meanwhile the contractor who supplies this material is no relation of the current mayor.

Lol. I was about to say "a dangerous slope?" surely you cannot say that in 2024.

 Beach Erosion 

 

Nature claiming back her turf. 

 People were getting greedy and build near  the  beach roads and houses.

Its normal for watercourses to change on rivers and beaches .

 No good fighting because nature will win in the end

Just close the road move the houses and go further Inland Leave Nature alone don't try to change it.
