Dive-site story
Situated off the western coast of Koh Nang Yuan, Twins consists of granite boulders encrusted in hard and soft corals separated by sandy channels. The shallow topography makes it one of the most frequently visited training and pleasure sites around Koh Tao. Divers navigate between distinct reef clusters, where resident anemonefish and juvenile reef species shelter in table corals and rocky crevices.
Resident saddleback anemonefish family protected within a ring of stones
Expansive patches of staghorn and pore corals interspersed with sandy patches
Direct proximity to the Buoyancy World artificial structure installation
Frequent encounters with foraging blue-spotted ribbontail rays along the bottom
