Why dive here
With 177+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, giant moray eels, whale sharks, clownfish and pufferfish - Palm beach offers some of Koh Lanta & Phi Phi's richest reef diving.
Palm Beach is a gentle introduction to diving around Koh Lanta, perfect for anyone just getting started or wanting to stretch out a long safety stop. At a maximum depth of 9m, it’s a calm, shallow spot where we’ve often found good numbers of anemonefish darting amongst their host anemones, along with various small reef fish meandering through the soft corals. The conditions here are usually very mellow, making it a comfortable place for your first few open water dives or for snorkelers to enjoy the shallows. We like it as a relaxed second dive, especially if the morning brought a bit more current elsewhere.
