    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Koh Kong Kliang is a good spot if you’re looking for a relaxed dive in the Gulf of Thailand. With a maximum depth of 14 metres, it’s a gentle introduction for beginners or a nice, easy second dive. You'll likely see plenty of reef fish flitting between the various soft corals and anemones. It’s not going to blow your mind with massive pelagics, but it offers a pleasant, unhurried tour of the local reef life. We'd suggest it as a straightforward option for those wanting to ease into their diving holiday.
