Hin Daeng

Dive Location:  500m from Hin Mouang.
Depth: Average 25m / Maximum 35m

A series of wall dives with intermittent shelves at varying depths. There are more soft corals than hard, but the main attraction is the seemingly endless diversity of marine inhabitants, including leopard sharks, turtles, moray eels, lionfish, bannerfish, angelfish, butterflyfish, pipefish, sea kraits, crabs, shrimps and lobsters.

This is due to the fact that this, and neighbouring Hin Mouang, are the only reef-type communities or feeding grounds within the area. Individually, though, they have different attractions. For instance, the deeper waters around this site are one of the few remaining places in the country where grey reef sharks can be encountered. Manta rays and whale sharks are also regular visitors.
