Diving Locations - Koh Phi Phi
Year round diving with preferred conditions between October and May. Sites also visited from Krabi and Phuket.

Phi Phi Islands overview:

One of the most dramatically beautiful locations in the world, the scenery from the surface is absolutely stunning at Phi Phi Islands. A very interesting environment for scuba divers, as over time the elements have created caves, overhangs and swim-throughs in the soft limestone rocks. Other dive profiles include vertical walls that plunge from the surface down to over 25 meters. On these walls are found a profusion of soft corals, large Gorgonian sea fans and Black corals. There are several unusual types of coral that can only be found in the waters surrounding the Phi Phi Islands including a one meter high white coral bush that is shaped like a Christmas tree complete with little ornaments.

These islands offer a remarkable variety of dive sites concentrated in very a small area. Two of the most popular dive sites are located at the southern tip of the small island of Koh Phi Phi Le: Koh Bida Nok & Bida Nai. Here you find large fields of stag horn and star corals and incredible numbers of colorful reef fish.

These islands are two of the local's favorite dive sites. They contain walls, swim-throughs, Leopard and Reef Sharks, Turtles, Barracudas, Jacks and Stingrays. Resident tropical fish also include Blue Ring and Emperor Angel Fish, playful Anemone fish, juvenile Tail-Spot Butterfly fish and more. The visibility is often limited to 5-25 meters but the Phi-Phi Islands are likely to remain among the most popular diving locations in south-east Asia.
