The Phi Phi islands are part of Krabi Province and have long been home to maritime communities; tourism surged after the 2000 film The Beach, reshaping the local economy and landscape.
Conservation
Maya Bay and nearby reefs have been repeatedly closed to visitors to allow coral recovery — choose operators that follow no-anchoring rules, reef-safe sunscreen practices, and limited landing protocols.
