The Beach: A Photographer’s Journey, a 60-minute TV series on the community and geography of Thailand’s islands in the Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand has won an intermedia-globe GOLD Award at the World Media Festival | TOURISM for Documentaries: Destinations.
The TV series, which was aired on the National Geographic Channel in 2014, was produced under a partnership between the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) and National Geographic Channel Asia.
The three-episode TV documentary followed National Geographic photographer Ben Horton on an epic journey across Thailand to capture a unique perspective of some of the country’s beautiful beaches in Krabi, Prachuap Khiri Khan and Surat Thani.
The Beach: A Photographer’s Journey will be re-run again on the National Geographic Channel from June to July 2015 in order to publicise a fascinating story of Thailand’s beaches as well as way of life and its people to the world. The World Media Festival is a global competition dedicated to recognising excellence in tourism- related content from all areas of the tourism business. Credit and view full story at TAT News
