Koh Samet’s Ao Phrao to reopen on Friday after oil spill

Koh Samet’s Ao Phrao, hit by an oil spill several months ago, will officially reopen to tourists this Friday.

Seawater-quality tests have confirmed that the bay is now ready for visitors to enjoy safely. Petroleum hydrocarbon, for example, has dropped to less than 1 microgram per litre of seawater, and mercury has plunged below 0.1mcg/l.
