On the east coast of Thailand, 179 kilometres
from Bangkok, modest beaches dotted around Rayong
province are tranquil paradises for sea lovers who wish
for hideaway places near to the capital. Months of
monsoon allow lush forest as well as fruit orchards to
cool down from the heat of the day, and give produce
during May of each year. So fruit lovers always travel
here for various tasty fresh tropical fruits, particularly
durian, rambutan and mangosteen. After the end of the
monsoon season in late October, the crystal clear water
of Rayong along its hundred kilometre-long coast
embraces to welcome all visitors.
