The governor of Narathiwat province in the far south of Thailand ordered the closure of three Muang district communities and several beaches as Covid-19 cases surpassed 500.

 

Only those with permission are allowed to move into the Moh Seu Mae, Kampong Bharu 2 and Tha Rua (port) 2000 area, reported 77kaoded.

Ao Manao Beach looks nothing like in the stock photo anymore. Most sand is gone, eroded away by the rising sea level.

On topic, many beaches can still be visited, most notably south of the Thaksin Ratchaniwet Palace. No big loss here.
