BANGKOK (The Nation/Asia News Network) Residents of the tiny Thai island that jumped into the global spotlight last week after being ranked No. 1 on World Beach Guide’s “Top 100 beaches on Earth 2023” are redoubling efforts to preserve its delicate ecosystem, Hat Chao Mai National Park chief Prit Narasrit said.
Koh Kradan will remain closed to tourists four months a year – from June 1 to Sept 30 – despite being ranked as having the most beautiful beaches in the world, Prit said.
