Description
 |
This scuba diving site consists of a collection of enormous submerged granite boulders running southeast-northwest, which are more typical of a west-facing coastal rock formation. |
They fancifully resemble rocky mountains separated by wide valleys, their sheer sides punctuated occasionally by clusters of soft coral and radiant crinoids; with small crevices housing a diversity of marine life. One of the best spots for scuba diving in Thailand, but not one of the most popular for getting married. |

Watching out for the Reef: Coral Conservation Guide for Divers
• Avoid touching live corals. You can kill them with your bare hands.
• Keep your gauge and octopus hoses close to yourself and prevent them damaging the reef.
• Secure your weight belt. Dropping of the weights can destroy the reef.
• Refrain from chasing or touching animals, especially manta rays and whale sharks.
•Maintain a comfortable distant and enjoy
watching them!
Many divers unintentionally destroy corals whilst diving.
Here are a few guidelines on how to avoid doing so.
• 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.
