A Thai bay that was made iconic by its appearance in the film The Beach is to remain closed until 2021.
Maya Bay, on the island of Phi Phi Leh, was temporarily closed last year after a sharp rise in the number of visitors had severely damaged the environment.
Before the closure, up to 5,000 tourists were visiting the bay every day, causing most of its corals to die.
Authorities have now the extended the ban on visits by two years to give more time for Maya Bay's ecology to recover.
