    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Ao Chak in the Mergui Archipelago is one of those places that just feels right for a relaxed afternoon dive. It’s shallow, topping out around 18 metres, which means plenty of bottom time for everyone. We’ve found it’s a great spot for newer divers to build confidence, or for experienced divers just looking for an easy cruise. Keep an eye out among the seafans for pipefish and small nudibranchs, and sometimes we’ll spot a passing eagle ray out in the blue. It’s not the most dramatic site in the region, but it delivers consistent, gentle diving.
