History
Phi Phi’s islands have long been part of local fishing and sea‑trade routes; Maya Bay gained global fame after film exposure and has undergone closures to aid reef recovery.
Conservation
The area is inside marine park zones with visitor limits and periodic site closures to protect coral and fish; use reef‑safe products and avoid touching reef to reduce impact.

Bring reef‑safe sunscreen
Protect coral and your skin—apply before boarding and reapply after swims with a towel to dry first.
Wear water shoes
Rocky boat landings and coral near shore make neoprene‑soled shoes practical for comfort and protection.
Secure seasick remedies
Open ocean stretches can be choppy—consider a non‑drowsy antiemetic if you’re prone to motion sickness.
Charge and waterproof devices
Bring a waterproof case and extra battery—photo opportunities are frequent and phone batteries drain quickly in warm weather.
Snorkel mask (own preferred fit)
Personal masks fit better than rented ones and reduce fogging for longer underwater visibility.
Reef‑safe sunscreen
Protects coral and prevents burns during long exposure on deck and in shallow water.
summer
Light windbreaker or UV shirt
Blocks spray and sun between islands when the wind picks up in open water.
winter
Waterproof phone case / dry bag
Keeps electronics and essentials dry during transfers and while photographing from the boat.
