SPAN - Koh Tang & Offshore

The SPAN wreck, sitting upright at 35 metres, is a serious piece of metal. This old motor vessel, sunk in '84, is impressively intact, offering some decent penetration opportunities if you're qualified and with the right guide. We've seen some large groupers patrolling the holds, and the bridge area attracts schools of fusiliers. It's a proper deep dive, best suited for experienced divers comfortable with the depth and potential currents out here. Definitely one for wreck enthusiasts looking for something beyond the usual.
