webfact Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Krabi’s Maya Bay, on Koh Phi Phi Leh, has been closed for 2 months, to give the ecosystem time to recover before the return of the tourist high season. The Bangkok Post reports that the closure has been confirmed by Ratchanok Phaenoi, chief of Hat Noppharat Thara-Mu Koh Phi Phi National Park.

PJ71 Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Did n't this place just get a 3 year break from tourism during Covid but it's already been spoiled again. Begs the question, should it not just remain closed or.....too much money to be raped out of it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
