Green Rock

Dive Location:  50m off the northern shore of Nang Yuan.
Depth: Average 12m / Maximum 25m

Divers come here for the tremendous selection of adventurous swimthroughs provided by large archways, caverns, caves and crevices which cut through the matrix of submerged rocks. There are many groupers, blue-spotted ribbontail rays and yellowmargin triggerfish, which can be aggressive – especially if protecting their nests during the spawning season.

This is a good place to see green and hawksbill turtles. Green Rock makes an interesting night-dive. The triggerfish secure themselves in the smaller crevices for the night and the parrotfish sleep in their cocoons while the nocturnal community comes to life.
