DIVE SITES

Along the coast of Koh Kood beautiful coral reefs are found between 6 and 21 meters. A number of giant barrel sponges and one or the other soft and whip coral have settled in the rock and hard coral formations. There's the possibility to discover stingrays, scorpion fish, nudibranchs and puffer fish - to name just a few. Even turtles are spotted sometimes. Visibility is best between December and February and the water temperature is between 27 and 31°C all year round. There are hardly any currents, so our reefs are suitable for beginners and relaxed dives. A little further north-west of Koh Kood lies the marine national park of Koh Rang and the wreck of the HMTS Chang.
