StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

Aow Suthep is a pretty sheltered spot in the Mergui Archipelago, ideal for newer divers or a relaxed second dive. You’re looking at a gentle slope down to 17m, mainly sandy patches and some scattered coral bommies. We usually find plenty of nudibranchs here, small reef fish, and sometimes a cuttlefish tucked away. It's a nice easy dive, good for getting your buoyancy dialled in.
