Chief of Hat Nopparat Thara Moh Koh Phi Phi National Park Worapot Lomlim said: &ldquo;The water temperature has started to decrease as it is monsoon season with some rain now. The coral bleaching situation will hopefully start to lessen.&rdquo; 
Bleaching is associated with the devastation of coral reefs, which are home to approximately 25 per cent of all marine species.
