About this audio guide
This guide to Jomtien Beach in Pattaya traces how a quietly eroding shoreline became an engineered one, opening on the storm runoff and wave damage that pushed officials to act. It follows the two-year dredging operation that reshaped the coast, and the fishing crews who pushed back against it. Listen for what happens to the sand each time it rains.
