Laem Chabang is a city in Chonburi Province, Thailand. It occupies the tambon Bang Lamung of Bang Lamung District, the tambons Bueng, Surasak, Thung Sukhla, and parts of Nong Kham of Si Racha District. Laem Chabang is home to Thailand's largest port, about 25 kilometres north of Pattaya, and south of the city of Chonburi. The port occupies 2,572 acres (1,041 ha) and is capable of handling the largest (Post-Panamax) vessels.
Development of the port complex started in 1988 to encourage development outside Bangkok and take advantage of proximity to the Gulf of Thailand. The container port was completed in 1991. In 2014 it handled 6.58 million TEUs, making it the 22nd busiest container port in the world. Much of the international shipping reaching Thailand passes through Laem Chabang. It is a port of call for Princess Cruises and Celebrity Cruises.
Laem Chabang also has world class golf courses, such as the Laem Chabang International Country Club designed by Jack Nicklaus.
Diane has always been our go-to travel agent for all of our family vacations.
Her knowledge of the field is extremely impressive, which has led my wife and I to continue to use her for all future trips. Whenever I want to get away for either a long weekend or a 10-day trip, I always contact Diane first. She always comes back with well prepared itineraries and estimated prices as well. Before booking, she always triple checks to make sure we get the best price - can't beat that service. I have recommended Diane to all of my friends as she is an absolute wonderful person and travel agent.
