Thailand is in the monsoon season from August to September every year, during which time the sea is hit by strong waves and storms, making the sea conditions very dangerous.

Both Maya Bay and Loh Samah Bay are closed around this time each year to ensure the safety of tourists while allowing nature to recover during this dangerous monsoon season.

Please note that while Maya Bay and Loh Samah Bay are closed, you can still visit Viking Cave and Pyre Bay within the National Park.

The Bank of Thailand (BOT) announced on Monday, July 31, that Thailand's exports are declining, while the tourism sector is expanding due to an increase in foreign tourists, so the Thai economy in June 2023 will continue to recover.

The BOT said tourism is expected to be the driving force behind the economic improvement as Thailand's exports are not expected to improve until the end of the year.

The BOT expects Thailand's economy to grow by 3.6% in 2023 and 3.8% in 2024, driven by tourism. Economic growth in 2022 was 2.6%.

The BOT forecasts 29 million foreign tourists in 2023 and 35.5 million in 2024. However, with nearly 40 million foreign tourists visiting Thailand in 2019 before the pandemic, that level has not yet to be reached.
