Thailand has formally declared Jomtien Beach safe for swimming following an intensive period of water quality monitoring and reinforced coastal protection measures led by national and local authorities.

Officials announced that comprehensive testing conducted over recent weeks confirmed water conditions meet established public health and environmental standards.

The assessment forms part of a broader nationwide initiative aimed at strengthening marine ecosystem management and restoring public confidence in key tourism destinations.

Environmental agencies carried out expanded sampling across multiple points along the Jomtien coastline, analysing bacterial levels, water clarity and pollution indicators.

Authorities stated that results consistently fell within acceptable thresholds for recreational use, allowing the beach to be officially cleared for swimmers.

The government has also introduced enhanced surveillance protocols, including more frequent testing cycles and closer coordination between marine departments, local municipalities and public health offices.

Wastewater management systems in surrounding areas have been subject to inspection, with corrective measures implemented where required.

Senior officials emphasised that protecting Thailand’s coastal resources remains a national priority, particularly in high-profile tourism zones such as Jomtien, which attracts large numbers of domestic and international visitors each year.

Strengthened enforcement against illegal discharges and expanded public awareness campaigns are now in place to maintain long-term water quality.

Tourism representatives welcomed the declaration, noting that transparent reporting and proactive environmental stewardship are critical to sustaining Thailand’s reputation as a premier seaside destination.

Authorities affirmed that monitoring will continue on an ongoing basis to ensure standards remain consistently high.

The announcement reinforces Thailand’s broader commitment to environmental sustainability and visitor safety, with officials pledging continued investment in marine conservation and infrastructure improvements along the country’s coastline.
