StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

Moken Bay is a gentle introduction to the Mergui Archipelago, a pleasant reef dive that doesn't push the envelope. Dropping to a comfortable 18 metres, it's perfect for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed afternoon. We've seen cuttlefish here, often hovering curiously from the coral, and a decent scattering of anemonefish darting amongst their host anemones. It's a calm spot, typically with minimal current, allowing plenty of time to explore the coral patches at your own pace. A good place to get your fins wet in Myanmar.
