Koh Chang is situated in the Gulf of Thailand and is surrounded by 51 other islands in the Koh Chang Archipelago. Spread across this archipelago are numerous dive sites that will offer you great diving experiences.
Pinnacles or coral reefs located around inhabited islands form the vast majority of the dive sites here.
Thanks to the tropical warmth of the water there is abundance in corals. These corals are in remarkable good state and offer some spectacular scenes for underwater photography.
The entire Gulf is quiet shallow and that is no exception in and around Koh Chang, which means that you will have long dive times and that there is plenty of natural light to observe the marine life.
The best time of the year for diving is from October until May, but that doesn’t mean nothing is happening in our Green Season. During that period we go out weather permitting and always keeping safety and fun in mind.
During the main season diving conditions are superb with visibility ranging to a mind blowing 40 m. On average the visibility is somewhere around 15-20m and the water is nice and warm. Temperatures between 28-30 degrees Celsius are normal. Most of the time there is gentle current that keeps the water clear.
The aquatic life around Koh Chang is abundant, ranging form shrimps, flatworms, and pipefish all the way to the majestic whale shark who visits us more and more the last couple of years. Recently there have been sightings in August, September and October.
Below you will find an overview of most sites visited by us. The Dive Adventure Team is also looking for new dive sites, so why not join one of our exploration dives and discover new interesting places!!
