Dive Sites

Local sites and the National Marine Park

Koh Chang is situated in the Gulf of Thailand and we are surrounded by 51 other islands in the Koh Chang Archipelago. All across the archipelago are numerous dive sites that will offer you great diving experiences and ideal training sites.

Thanks to the tropical warmth of the water, there is an abundance of corals and fish. The corals on most of the dive sites are in remarkable good condition and offer some spectacular scenes for underwater photography and they have something very special to show us after dark. Have a look here to see nature giving us a light show!
The aquatic life around Koh Chang is abundant, ranging form shrimps, flatworms, and pipefish all the way to the majestic whale shark who visits us more and more the last couple of years. Recently there have been sightings in August, September, October and November.

The entire Gulf is quite shallow and that is no exception in and around Koh Chang, which means that you will have long bottom times and that there is plenty of natural light to observe, enjoy and photograph the marine life.

Pinnacles or coral reefs located around inhabited islands form the vast majority of the dive sites here.

The best time of the year for diving is from October until May, but that doesn’t mean nothing is happening in our Green Season. During that period we go out weather permitting and always keeping safety and fun in mind.

During the main season diving conditions are superb with visibility ranging to a mind blowing 30 m. On average the visibility is somewhere around 15-20m and the water is nice and warm. Temperatures between 28-30 degrees Celsius are normal. Most of the time there is a gentle current that keeps the water clear.
