Sail Rock Briefly
Located between Koh Tao & Koh Phangan this dramatic rock rises out of the water creating the best wall dive in the Gulf of Thailand, with a maximum depth of 40 meters. The wall is covered in soft sponges along with many oysters and clams clinging to the craggy surface. A few Meters away from the wall, schools of batfish and jacks huddle together in the slight current. Most divers come here in the hope of seeing whale sharks, which are frequently sighted in season, whilst the rest of the year divers swim surrounded by schools of pelagic fish patrolling the depths. The site is best known for it's naturally formed rock 'chimney' where you can enter an opening at 18 mtrs and ascend inside the rock with your buddy and exit at 10 mtrs.
Chumphon Pinnacles Briefly
Located North West of Koh Tao, this group of completely submerged pinnacles is probably one of the best dives in the Gulf Of Thailand. The giant rock pinnacles rise up from 35 meters to 14 meters and are covered in a carpet of pink anemones. The main attraction is the massive groupers that can be seen on most dives hanging in the current just off the pinnacles. Here you will also have an excellent opportunity to see the illusive Whale Shark, which often cruises by followed by, great barracuda, jacks, tuna and shoals of Bat fish.
