Koh Dok Mai

Dive Location: 10km west of Shark Point
Depth: Average 19m / Maximum 31m

The east side of the island offers a wall rich in invertebrates and a good representation of tube corals. There are large moray eels, black-banded sea kraits, honeycomb groupers and angelfish, and you have a good chance of seeing leopard sharks out on the sand. Bivalves cling to sea whips along the deeper sections of the wall.This eastern wall also features two caves. The walls and ceiling of the larger one are rich in soft corals, but it is best to remain outside, exploring the cave’s interior safely by torch light. The western side of the island features a steeply sloping reef rather than the sheer drops that dominate elsewhere. Black-tip and white-tip reef sharks can be seen. There are healthy sea fans and barrel and encrusting sponges. Visiting pelagics often pass by.
