Koh Kon Rin

Dive Location:  South of Koh Phangan’s southeastern cape.
Depth: Average 15m / Maximum 27m

The eastern half of this dive circumnavigates a large rocky outcrop; the rock’s northern side has an average depth of 12m while the southern face drops off to the site’s maximum depth.

This, the best section of the site, is a wall with numerous barrel sponges, oysters and clams on the rock face. Spiny lobsters and moray eels can often be seen concealing themselves in the nooks and crannies. As you head east the wall disappears and you find instead, at about 15m, an area of large rocks intermixed with sea whips. Black-tip reef sharks have been spotted along the site’s southern perimeter.
