Benyapa "Fawn" Jantawan (born 10 April 1984) is a real estate agent and an Olympic kite surfer from Thailand.

The Professional Kiteboard Riders Association ran an event at her local beach and she decided to enter to find out more about the competition.

[1] In 2013, she was on Pingtan Island in China where record breaking prize money and free accommodation had brought in 120 international competitors for the KTA final including local poster girl Chen Jingyue and the Dutch kitefoiler Katja Roose who gave Jantawan and Kathrin Borgwardt difficult competition throughout the week.

The Chinese contestant Jingyue Chen won the event becoming the Asian champion and the bronze medal was gained by Lee Young-eun of South Korea.

By this time Juntawari was already in the chosen continental competitors which included Gisela Pulido from Spain, Catalina Turienzo, the Canadian Emily Claire Bugeja, Julie Paturau from Mauritius and Justina Kitchen from New Zealand.
