The Phi Phi islands supported small fishing communities and the swiftlet-nest trade; recent international tourism has reshaped the local economy and prompted beach conservation measures.
Conservation
Authorities periodically close fragile sites like Maya Bay and limit visitor numbers to allow reef recovery; using reef‑safe products and following guide instructions reduces impact.
