Diving Around Koh Ha, Koh Bida and Hin Daeng / Hin Muang

     

Rob:Whilst we are in the low season, I have been sorting out all my diving photos and videos from the 07/08 season. I really enjoyed not just viewing all the diving photos again but I especially liked looking at and remembering all the people I have been lucky enough to meet and dive with. What great time’s and memories we all share.

So I have put together a short collection of video’s which really do show what can be seen on each dive site.

Koh Ha This video starts with a tour of the Go dive Shop and Boat. I have added this as this is the boat I work on and it gives you a greater view of what we do.

Koh Ha is fantastic for beginners, advanced and snorkelers. The visibility usually exceeds 25mtrs. It has a lagoon area with a beach. For the more adventurous diver it has some caves, one with an air pocket called the Cathedral as it towers 30mtrs high.

Keep a keen eye out for Sea Moths, Harlequin Shrimps, Sea Horse, Turtles, Ghostpipe Fish and a great variety of Nudi Branch.

Koh Bida Islands These islands are 2 of my favorites mainly due to the incredible scenery above and below the water. Hard and soft corals are in abundance, you have reef walls dropping straight down to 30 meters, swim thru’s and Giant Gorgonian fans as big as a bus.

What you can look out for whilst diving are Octopus, Cuttlefish, Barracuda, Trevally eating frenzies, Leopard and Black Tip Sharks and if you keep looking out maybe a Whale Shark.

Hin Daeng / Hin Muang These 2 sites really are the best diving in the area and when I go there I can’t sleep the night before as I am too excited. Unfortunately due to strong currents they are not for the beginner diver.

Hin Muang is an oblong rock, submerged 10 meters underwater, stretching around 200 meters and dropping straight down to an incredible 70 meters. Hin Daeng is around 400 meters apart and is the opposite, with canyon’s, wall and pinnacles.

Both dive sites have impressive soft corals, and some would say home to Manta Rays sometimes with up to 5 circling me at one time and again if you are lucky enough a Whale Shark may be passing.

Other sightings include schools of Batfish, Yellow Tail Barracuda, Rainbow Runners, Giant Moray Eels and the best show of colorful Marine Fish anywhere in the world.

I would also like to thank Chris,DD,Stefan,Seb and Deborah for contributing some of the photos and videos we have used on the AmazingLanta site. Also a massive thank you to Oli not just for her photos and video footage but who lent me her camera several time’s when I had forgot mine. Thank You All!
