Ko
Lanta dive sites offer coral-covered pinnacles, deep drop offs,
fringing reefs, caves and tunnels, wrecks and much more.
As the gateway to the dive sites of the southern
Andaman Sea, our sites include the fabled Hin Daeng and Hin Muang,
the nearby Ko Ha, and the perrenial favorites of Hin Bida, Fantasea
Rock, Ko Bida, Ko Rok, Ko Muk and the King Cruiser wreck.
Despite the range of excellent sites, many divers come for Hin Daeng
and Hin Mouang as they are often rated among the best dive sites
in the world. Their impressive underwater landscape and fantastic
marine life including reef sharks, manta rays and whale sharks offers
truly spectacular diving.
When approaching Hin Daeng all one sees are 3 small rocks just breaking
the surface. But under the surface lies a dramatic underwater landscape.
Drop offs with walls dropping over 50 meters and exhilarating corridors
covered by hard and soft corals.
This is a dive site you don’t dive the same way twice. Back
and forth, in and out, somehow it feels as if there are always new
parts of the reef waiting to be explored.
Only a small distance away lies Hin Muang, one of the most beautiful
submerged reefs in the the world. This rock features the deepest
drop off in Thailand, exceeding 70 meters. It is covered, completely
covered with anemones and absolutely stunning purple soft corals.
It offers the same variety of marine life as Hin Daeng, with huge
schools of Rainbow Runners, big Tunas, and great Barracudas.
