History
Phi Phi’s limestone islands formed from uplifted coral and marine sediment; in recent decades tourism reshaped local livelihoods and prompted conservation measures after environmental stress.
Conservation
Maya Bay and nearby reefs have undergone temporary closures and capacity limits to allow reef recovery; visitors are asked to use reef-safe products and avoid touching coral.

Bring reef-safe sunscreen
Choose mineral-based sunscreen to protect coral and reapply after swimming; it’s mandatory in some protected bays.
Pack a snug snorkel mask
On-board rental exists but a well-fitting personal mask improves visibility and comfort for long snorkel sessions.
Morning seas are calmer
If you’re prone to motion sickness, sit mid-ship and take medication or acupressure before departure for a smoother morning ride.
Don’t feed or approach monkeys
Monkeys on Monkey Beach can be bold; keep distance, secure bags and avoid offering food to prevent bites or gear theft.
Snorkel mask and fins
Personal gear fits better and keeps sand out of mouthpieces during multiple snorkel stops.
