Maya Bay, world famous after the movie The Beach with Leonardo DiCaprio was filmed there 20 years ago.
This is one of the nicest beaches in Thailand and probably the world, but it had been ruined by over-tourism. The Thai government closed it for over 2 years in order to save the environment and in this video, I'll show you what it's like today, just two months after reopening.

or...you could visit the commune on Koh Phangan that Alex Garland stayed at back in the early 90s and was, so legend has it, the inspiration for the book. It's still there today, and not overly changed. There may be a boat to it running again now, or you can walk through the bush for an hour to find it just like in the movie. Don't worry you don't have to jump off a cliff into water to get there 😅

Visited Maya Bay in 2003 and although very busy, it was definitely a bucket list item for me. I really like the film, so we'll agree to disagree on that, the director Danny Boyle has a definite style and received critical acclaim for his work with some iconic films. Interestingly enough Danny Boyle also directed the film 28 Days Later, from the same author.

I was at Maya Bay on Sunday, it is definitely worth visiting. If you take the boat around the island there is another area which is just as beautiful with calm waters, close to the Viking cave. Also, now in Bangkok and had to try pad krapao from your place you recommended and wow it was really good.

In 2008 I whas at the Maya Beach. At that time there where no floating pontoons to get on the island.. We did transfer into a small canoe / kayak. They brought us at the cost. From the canoe we clambered on the slippery rocks into a small tunnel. Walking through the woods at the beach. Quite an experience in those days. Especially with the rough sea that day. On our way back I did end up falling into the water. I had to swim back at the big boat. Looks a whole lot easier these days whit those floating pontoons.

The irony of this place is Dicaprio's movie crew bulldozed part of the island to make the movie and it damaged the island for years to come. Info used to be on wiki about it, but it has since been removed. You can still find articles on it however- the Thai govt wasn't happy about the damage the movie production caused. Many articles removed about it- probably not helping DiCaprio's image since he's all about green. I've been to Koh Phi Phi several times- its stunning, beautiful and absolutely amazing- but completely swamped with people. Keep in mind you're there when the pandemic is endemic and its April- December will be an absolute zoo. The big tour boats are non stop and certain people (that's as far as I will go on that comment)do not respect the island and are trash hogs. I really do wish the government would control the # of boats/# of people per boats to access the island. Last time I went, it seemed like 1000 people walking on the sand, 2 dozen boats in the water, whistles going off, people yelling, constant roar of boat engines- it was not relaxing. Getting on a subway in Shinjuku at 8am would have been more relaxing. Limiting people per day would def help on many levels. Anyways, glad you got to experience it with a few people walking by. Looks incredible and I'm glad the place recovered.

I agree with your comment. I was in the Philippines three or four years ago and passed through Boracay on my way to another island. Boracay was a disaster due to being over-run with tourists year after year. So much so that the Philippine government shut the place down for nearly two years to clean it up. PhiPhi seems headed down the same path IMO.

I visited Maya Bay [early 2005?] a month or two after the tsunami. I just happened to be in the area, so thought I'd give a boat driver some work . . . only four of us on the beach. Managed to get a classic beach shot of a girl in a bikini standing at the water's edge looking out . . . probably never get that photo in that location again. To be honest, PhiPhi [both islands] has just been super-exploited over the past 15 years or so. Much like Boracay in the Philippines [which was wisely shut down a few years ago to help it recover from the tourist damage] it's become a place better avoided while you seek out other destinations that have an equal amount [or more] of natural beauty, but without the crowds.
