Koh Kom |
Dive Location: Outcrop to the southeast of Podah Nok.
Depth: Average 12m / Maximum 20m
The seascape around the western side of the outcrop features numerous terraced shelves which drop down to an area of large rocks. The gaps between the rocks act as shelters for a selection of medium-sized vertebrates, including large dog-faced pufferfish and groupers. Moorish idols and schooling bannerfish patrol among many sea whips and bushy black corals.
There’s also a small cave, the shallower exit of which leads to an elevated rocky plateau dense with magnificent sea anemones, themselves occupied by groups of saddleback and tomato anemonefish.
