kidneyw Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 First went there in 1980. It was so idyllic. No chance of it reverting back, but it would be nice if it could contain the offshore onslaught that has propagated in recent years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard of Thai tourists, but have not seen a herd of them lately. I hear that they may soon come here, since the local scene is something that has to be seen to believe. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Most Thais" do not favor an island as a tourist destination, since they prefer to go somewhere whereas they can access easily by car. Anything what seems to involve more than 100 meters of walking seems to be too much for most of them. I don't say everybody. But by experience I would say that most islands in Thailand are invaded by foreign tourists. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masks absolutely stifle your breathing in warm weather. I refuse to wear one for health reasons.
