Dive-site story
Tucked along the southwest coastline of Phuket, this sheltered cove features sloping granite boulders interspersed with hard coral formations and sandy patches. Divers typically explore the boulder ridges where crevices harbor macro subjects, small crustaceans, and resting reef fish. Because it sits away from the main resort strips, boat traffic remains lighter than at central Phuket bays, though swell can build quickly when western winds pick up.
