Dive-site story
Off the western fringe of Koh Sak near Pattaya, a gentle slope transitions from scattered coral bommies to sandy flats. Calm conditions suit training sessions, while muck divers scour the seabed for camouflaged macro life. Brain and pore corals populate the shallower reef, giving way to sand dotted with rubble and artificial structures.
