June 8, 20241 yr I was kayaking between the Lomprayah pier at Mae Nam and Ban Tai beach, and noticed a lot of white areas in the water that I haven't seen there before. Seems that massive coral bleaching happened. Are Phangan or Koh Tao affected? https://www.independent.co.uk/climate-change/news/thailand-heat-coral-reef-bleaching-b2550015.html
