The Hat Noppharat Thara – Mu Koh Phi Phi National Park on Tuesday (August 1st) has announced a reminder of the annual closure of the Maya Bay and the Loa Sama Bay in the national park area.

The temporary two months closure for tourism is from August 1st to September 30th, 2023. The area will be strictly off-limits except to park staff and ecologists.

National Park officials stated the annual closure is to allow effective tourism management following the monsoons in this season as well as to give time for nature and the environment to restore themselves.
