Why dive here
With 537+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, giant moray eels, seahorses, sea turtles and sperm whales - TEAM STAR offers some of Kenting National Park's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 24-30°C, warmest July, August, September.
The *Team Star*, formerly the *Yoshu Maru No. 12*, rests upright at 60 meters off Kenting, a substantial bulk carrier sunk after a collision in 1993. Dropping down, you'll find her intact and surprisingly accessible, considering the depth. We've spent time exploring her bridge and cargo holds, now home to clouds of fusiliers and the occasional larger pelagic cruising by in the blue. It’s a serious deep dive, definitely for experienced wreck enthusiasts with appropriate training and gas planning. The sheer scale of the 75-meter vessel makes for an impressive dive, though visibility can vary depending on the currents.
