StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

J-Spot sits shallow, maxing out at 21m, making it a good entry point for newer divers exploring the Mergui Archipelago. We often find a decent number of reef fish here. The site doesn't typically deliver big pelagics, but for a relaxed dive with consistent small stuff, it's a solid choice. If you're looking to ease into Myanmar's diving, this is a good spot to start.
