Rayong Thai Gulf's Baytown where your beach vacation can take place. Suited 221 kms. from Bangkok, Rayong is one of the most developed provinces on the country’s eastern seaboard, and is reached following an hour’s drive east to Pattaya. Rayong’s beaches are fairly crowed on weekends, making this province more of a destination for the social sun-seeker. Most of the hotels are located along a 20 kms. strip, along the beach road between the fishing village of Ban Phe and Laem Mae Pim Beach.
