Bungalow bay

Bungalow Bay, on Koh Miang, is where we head when we want a chill dive after a couple of drift-filled days. It’s a great spot for an afternoon swim-through or a twilight exploration, the kind of place where you can just unwind. The sandy bottom starts shallow, a gentle slope out to about 18 meters, dotted with granite boulders. We love picking through the smaller stuff here, finding Orangespotted Gobies guarding their burrow entrances, or spotting the tiny Lubbock's Combtooth-Blennies peeking out from coral heads. The Staghorn corals create decent little labyrinths, perfect for poking around to find honeycomb morays tucked deep inside. This isn’t a high-octane dive; it’s more about the little details. The light filtering through the water around sunset is particularly lovely, casting long shadows from the rocks. You’ll see plenty of Indo-Pacific sergeants schooling, and the occasional Blacktip Soldierfish under an overhang. It’s perfect for macro enthusiasts, or divers who just want to take it slow and enjoy the quiet.
