StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

Song Hong often gets overlooked, but if you’re comfortable in current, it's worth a dive. This deeper site drops to 34m, so it’s one for expert divers who manage their gas well. We’ve had some fantastic encounters with schools of snapper and barracuda here, especially when the conditions are just right. It’s a good option if you’re looking to escape the busier spots.
