This year has been great as a lot of dive companies have kept there doors open all year round meaning you can dive anytime of the year weather permitting. Some smaller dive operators still continue to close and open with the main season which starts from November till May. This is when the seas are calm and the weather hot!

Koh Ha is a divers paradise with warm clear water and a lagoon area for people learning to dive and snorkel. It also deeper places to dive for the more experienced with caves and swim thru’s and many beautifull soft corals and an abundance of marine life.

In the green season after May till September you are almost gauranteed the dive site to you self. Also now in November you may see around 4 boats moored up where in the high season in December there may be as many as 15 boats moored up.

This week in Koh Ha has been very special. I have met and dove with some great people to start with. Then I have been very lucky by finding 2 different Ghost Pipe Fish around 24 meters deep and 100 meters apart. But the biggest surprise was a 6 meter Whale Shark cruising by with around 15 Cobias in tow. When I realised at 19 meters deep I only had 20 bar left I decided to surface.

I did not have my camera this day but Brendan my buddy did so as soon has he sends me the photo’s I will post them here. We where the very lucky one’s of this day as we where the only 2 people to see the Whale Shark.

Please don’t make the same mistake as I did and always take your camera. Below are a few photo’s from this weeks diving around Koh Ha and some of the beautifull things you may get to see.
