Ko Rok Nok - Koh Lanta & Phi Phi
Ko Rok Nok offers a relaxed dive, usually a gentle drift along the reef. We've often spotted leopard sharks here, tucked under ledges, along with schools of yellowtail barracuda cruising in the blue. The hard coral formations are decent, providing shelter for moray eels and angelfish. It's a great spot for newer divers or those looking for an easy, pleasant couple of dives.
