Koh Ha Diving & Snorkelling

Snorkelling

	Some Lanta dive locals say that recently (as at Aug 09) the shoals of fish at Koh Ha have become so numerous that the fish outnumber even those at Koh Rok.
Koh Ha is now emerging as a rival to Koh Rok for Thailand's number 2 snorkelling spot (the best snorkelling in the kingdom is still at the Surin Islands).
	A major benefit of a trip to Koh Ha is that mixed groups of snorkellers and divers can go to Koh Ha on the same boat, making Koh Ha the area's, and probably the kingdom's, best destination for mixed groups of snorkellers and divers.

Dive Site - Koh Ha Nua

	One point of individuality is that the site is characterised by a scattering of geometrically shaped rocks. Sea whips and sea fans are much in evidence, as are featherstars and nudibranchs.
This is as good a place as any to see Indian and spotfin lionfish, bearded scorpionfish and imperial angelfish. There is a small cave off the southwest wall, which twists down to its exit in a lovely area of large submerged boulders carpeted in radiant soft corals and large gorgonian sea fans.
	The gaps between offer exciting swim-through experiences.

Dive Site - Koh Ha Yai

	There is excellent adventure here. The south western face has a cave with two large entrances. The western of these is a hole in the rock at a depth of 5m. This immediately enters the larger of two connected cathedrals, which rise an impressive 30m above sea-level. The other entrance/exit, at the eastern end, is deeper, at 16m.
It is not dark in the cathedrals; light enters from the waters below. Directly in front of the cave are a number of large rocks highlighted by sea fans and soft corals. There are also plenty of sea whips, which are worth closer inspection as it will reveal a variety of tiny camouflaged invertebrates.
