Scuba Nation
Why dive here
With 54+ marine species recorded in the area - including sea turtles, tiger sharks and pufferfish - Scuba Nation offers some of Koh Tao's richest diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, June.
Scuba Nation is a site we usually visit on Koh Tao for its collection of smaller residents. You’ll often spot horseshoe crabs scuttling on the sand patches, and look for silver moonies and crazy fish tucked into the reef structure. It’s a good spot for newer divers, with generally mild conditions and plenty to observe at a relaxed pace.
