Dive-site story
Located in a sheltered bay along the southeastern coast of Koh Surin Tai, this site consists of extensive hard coral slopes that ease into a white sand bottom. Massive Porites colonies, branching staghorn thickets, and table corals dominate the shallows before transitioning into soft coral outcroppings deeper down. Divers drift along the reef line observing active reef species and foraging critters in the rubble patches.
Vast expanses of branching staghorn and boulder corals in the shallow shallows
Frequent encounters with sea turtles feeding along the reef crest
Macro critters tucked among coral rubble and anemone beds
