Chumphon Pinnacle Koh Tao
The finest dive site in the Gulf of Thailand - an underwater granite pinnacle rising from 36 meters with a schooling presence of whale sharks from February to May, plus massive schools of chevron barracuda, giant grouper, and pelagics. Achievable with an Advanced Open Water certification.

Tanote Bay Koh Tao
The most beautiful bay on Koh Tao's eastern coast - a protected cove with crystal-clear water, excellent shore diving among giant boulders, and a remote location that requires a 30-minute walk or longtail taxi. The underwater landscape of the bay, with massive granite formations, is unlike any other dive on the island.

Shark Bay (Thian Og Bay) Koh Tao
A sheltered bay where juvenile blacktip reef sharks can be reliably spotted in the shallow waters - one of the few places in the world where you can snorkel with sharks without diving certification. The sharks are small, completely harmless, and the snorkeling from the beach is exceptional.
