Why dive here
With 158+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, blue-spotted stingrays, mobula rays (devil rays), whale sharks and pufferfish - Buoyancy World offers some of Gulf of Thailand's richest diving. Water sits around 28°C.
Buoyancy World sits in the Gulf of Thailand, a perfectly calm spot for getting your trim dialed in. At a uniform 14 meters, it’s ideal for beginners or those brushing up their skills. You’ll find some scattered coral bommies and a decent collection of reef fish – think parrotfish munching away and small schools of fusiliers darting about. It’s not a drift dive, so you can really focus on your breathing and fin kicks, making it a solid choice for a confidence boost before heading to more challenging spots.
