Snorkeling suspended in some areas of Pipi Island, Thailand due to serious coral bleaching

2024-06-25 15:59 CCTV news Editor in charge: Chen Xi

In view of the serious bleaching of coral reefs in the sea area, Pipi Island National Park, a famous scenic spot in Thailand, decided to suspend snorkeling and other tourism projects in some areas from June 30, and forbid tourists to bring and use sunscreen containing harmful ingredients to coral reefs into the scenic spot, so as to restore the ecological environment and allow coral reefs to grow again.

Yutapong, the head of Pipi Island National Park, said that this was the first time such a serious bleaching of coral reefs had occurred in the sea area. Almost all kinds of corals were albino, especially deer horn corals and sea anemones.

Coral bleaching refers to the death of symbiotic algae in corals due to the rise of sea water temperature or pollution of sea water. Corals eventually lose their nutrition supply and die, showing white.

Pippi Island was designated as the Thai National Park in 1983. With beautiful beaches and natural scenery, it is a famous tourist resort in Thailand. According to the latest statistical data released by Thailand National Park and Animal and Plant Protection Agency on June 23, from October 2023 to June 2024, the ticket revenue of Pipi Island National Park will exceed 500 million baht (about 100 million yuan), ranking first in the list of 156 national parks in Thailand.
