Thailand Scuba Diving Dive Site Directory

Description

The north-eastern side features a sloping reef, whereas the south-western side is a more dramatic sheer drop-off: rocks resemble fallen hexagonal pillars and are the highlight of this side of the scuba diving site. At the south-eastern end of these formation is a large swim-through; this provides an almost purpose-built opening to the site’s opposite side. Large Napoleon wrasse have also been seen around this section as have passing sharks and rays. Scuba dive Thailand for a blissful bathe in an underwater utopia.

• Use the correct amount of weight to aid in your buoyancy.
• Control your fins; keep them away from the reefs and avoid kicking sand onto the corals.
• Do not pick up organic objects (dead or alive) from the sea. Likewise, please do not buy shells or other decorative products made from sea animals.
• Do not stand or rest on the stone-like corals. After all, they are living animals.
