Why dive here
With 177+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, giant moray eels, whale sharks, clownfish and pufferfish - Koh Rok offers some of Koh Lanta & Phi Phi's richest diving.
Out on the western side of Koh Rok, you’ll find a gentle slope of hard coral, a good spot for easing back into things or for newer divers. We’ve had pleasant, relaxed dives here, drifting along with plenty of time to really look around. There’s a lot of colour from the reef fish, and we often spot moray eels tucked into the crevices, plus octopus camouflaged against the rocks. Keep an eye on the sandy patches for Kuhl's blue-spotted stingrays, they’re pretty common in Thailand and often just partially buried. If you hit the water early or late, you might even catch a glimpse of blacktip reef sharks.
