With Thailand’s top destinations left virtually empty due to the Covid-19 pandemic, many places like Ban Sam Chong Nuea in Phang Nga’s Takua Thung district are devising new ways to attract local travellers.
Now tourists can take a longtail boat around Phang Nga Bay and enjoy not just the area’s scenic beauty but also get a close-up view of the simple lives led by the Thai-Muslim population.
“Homestays are available for those who want to stay overnight, and people can feast on seafood sold at affordable prices. There is also a variety of goods people can take back as souvenirs, such as tie-dye cloth and processed seafood,” the community leader said.
It is expected that Thailand’s tourism industry will take at least a year to recover in the fallout of the Covid-19 outbreak.
