Why dive here
With 54+ marine species recorded in the area - including sea turtles, tiger sharks and pufferfish - Fish & Ships offers some of Koh Tao's richest diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, June.
Fish & Ships on Koh Tao offers a pretty mellow dive. You’ll find a mix of natural reef and some artificial structures, mostly just concrete blocks and a few bits of metal that have become home to a surprisingly good collection of smaller reef fish. We’ve spotted plenty of saddleback clownfish nestled in their anemones, and the staghorn corals here are doing quite well, attracting schools of silver demoiselles. It’s a good spot for a relaxed second or third dive, especially if you’re into macro life or just want to cruise around without much current. A decent option for newer divers getting comfortable with their buoyancy.
