Hin pee wee - Gulf of Thailand

Hin Pee Wee is a relatively shallow dive, mostly a collection of scattered rocks and small coral patches. You’ll find nudibranchs here if you look closely, and we often spot cuttlefish hanging around the crevices. It’s a good spot for a relaxed second dive or for newer divers looking to get comfortable with the local conditions, typically mild currents. Expect to see smaller reef fish and often a few lionfish tucked away.
