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.
Thank you to Leona for everything you did for our daughters wedding!
I would like to thank Leona Hannon for her services she provided for my daughter’s wedding in Jamaica in April-2013. Leona went over and above my expectations with her professional attitude and diligent approach in all areas. Leona did in fact treat our group not as a client but like a family member, which made the bride more relaxed, and me the mother of the bride off the hook lol. I would recommend Leona’s services to my family and friends in the near future. Cheers Sandy Russell
