    Buom Island is one of those easy-going spots offshore where you can just unwind. At a maximum depth of 12 metres, it’s a perfect introductory dive or a nice place for a relaxed second tank. We often see the reef sharks cruising by, and there’s usually a decent number of fusiliers hanging out. It’s a good little taste of what the Koh Tang area offers without any strong currents to worry about.
