Maya Bay was formed by the erosion process of part of the surrounding limestone cliffs that collapsed into a large opening thousands of years ago [4] connecting to the sea outside. Sea water flows in and out well. This limestone island is located tens of kilometers offshore. Sediments from Phang Nga Bay had very little influence. The clear water allows the light to shine through at the right level. The coral larvae floating around the area landed on the rocks that piled up in the middle of the bay. Each asexual reproduces from one to two...two to four. Thousands of years have passed. Coral reefs expand to cover Maya Bay. At the same time the sea changed Natural processes also take place on the coast. Sand sediments accumulated together to form a beach. Some of the fruits of the seaside plants floating on the water Come from some animals, grow into a beach forest that covers the inner part of the bay, about 50 rai
After the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake, a tsunami swept away existing buildings on the island. And make the landscape of the bay return to its original nature.
