Haad Yao Divers - Koh Tao

Haad Yao Divers sits on the quieter side of Koh Tao, a good choice if you're looking to avoid the bustle of Sairee. They run daily trips, often to the southwest pinnacles and local reef sites that dot the coast. We've found their smaller group sizes make for a more relaxed day, particularly appealing to those who prefer less crowded boats and a calmer pace. If you're staying down south, it's a convenient base.
