Good news:::Maya Bay to remain closed till mid-2021

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

Good news:::Maya Bay to remain closed till mid-2021

It needed this rest for sure... :thumb:
I was last there in 87 and it was beautiful but once the tour boats started going in mass, they ruined the bay
BANGKOK: The Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation decided yesterday (May 8) to extend the closure of world-famous Maya Bay for another two years. It is now due to reopen in the middle of 2021.

Maya Bay is just 250 metres long and 15m wide. Its popularity soared after the release 19 years ago of Hollywood flick The Beach, starring heartthrob Leonardo DiCaprio, as some scenes were filmed there. This resulted in 5,000 tourists turning up there a day at the peak of its fame.

We know you’re old Richard. Well done for still being with us.

Overpopulation will be the death of us. (Or an asteroid)
