    Chaloklum Diving, tucked away on Koh Tao's northern side, offers a chilled-out contrast to some of the island's busier spots. It's a relaxed dive, often with gentle currents, making it a good choice for newer divers or those looking for a more tranquil afternoon. We usually find plenty of Rivulated Parrotfish munching on the corals and a few Banded Maori Wrasse cruising around. Keep an eye out for the Fluted Clams tucked into the crevices, their iridescent mantles really pop in the sunlight. It's not about big pelagics here, more about enjoying the quieter side of Koh Tao's reefs.
