Twin Rocks

Twin Rocks is a comfortable, easy dive, and honestly, one of our favourite spots for a relaxed afternoon in Koh Tao. It’s not going to blow your mind with massive pelagics or dramatic drop-offs, but for sheer fish action, it's hard to beat. We love dropping in on the sheltered side. The water here often feels like a warm bath, gently rocking you over the sandy bottom between the two main granite boulders. You'll find schools of butterfish that shimmer like liquid silver, and a constant ballet of East-Indies parrotfish grazing on the rocks. Keep an eye out for the delicate blennies peeking from their holes; they’re surprisingly curious. We always seem to spot a blacktip reef shark cruising the outer edges too, particularly if you dive early in the morning before the crowds arrive. The staghorn corals are coming back beautifully in places, attracting swarms of Miry's demoiselles. It's a fantastic site for newer divers building confidence, or for photographers who want to spend time getting close to smaller reef life without battling strong currents.
