After more than 3 years, Thailand opens
"The Beach" again
Leo diCaprio made the dream bay famous.
Now the Thai authorities have announced the reopening of the beautiful bay. Tourists can travel there again on January 1, 2022, according to a statement by the Thai ministry.

Everyone knows the world famous beach of Leonardio di Caprio "The Beach". As a result, from the year 2000 onwards there was times around 5000 tourists crowded the Maya beach, which is only 250 meters long and 15 meters wide... We were lucky on that day, there was nobody there around us. First we stopped in the beautiful Phi Le Lagoon after we went to the famous "The Beach."

As a result of the commercial success of The Beach, the island's popularity increased suddenly. A Since the island has no sewage system or sewage treatment plant, the wastewater ended up in the sea uncleaned. According to the national park administration, 80 percent of the coral banks were destroyed by the pollution caused in the Maya Bay.

On June 1, 2018, Maya Bay was closed for four months so that nature can recover from the tourist crowds. Since the investigations in the following months revealed far more serious environmental damage than previously assumed, the ban was extended on October 1st of 2021 for an indefinite period, but at least for one year.
