Anybody who dives in Thailand should seriously give some thought about coming to Koh Lanta and joining a day boat, a Liveaboard or even a sailing boat to enjoy diving at its very best.

Koh Ha Lagoon

I have just dived Koh Ha for the millionth time and again just had one of the best dives of my life. I like the clear warm waters and Koh Ha has an abundance of marine life and corals for the beginner to the professional to enjoy! You can view Nudibranch’s, Turtles, Barracuda, Lionfish, Clown Fish, Moray Eels, Cuttlefish the list is endless and will fill up anyone’s log book.

Seamoth found in Koh Ha Lagoon

For me tho I like the smaller unique creatures and Koh Lanta seems to deliver every time. Where else can you find Devil Scorpiofish, Indian Walkmans, Ghostpipefish, Seamoths, and sometimes Seahorse’s and Harlequin Shrimp all on the same dive.

This very small Ghostpipe fish was great to see

Below are 2 videos of the Seamoths and Ghostpipe Fish. They are very small and unique and both videos where taken in 10 meters of water which makes it great that every diver can get to see.

The Seamoths are always found in pairs and walking around the bottom together. Look at the the one in the back with a bigger nose. One must be a female and the other a male. They where filmed in 4 meters of water which make’s it great for a safety stop. The only problem is tho the do move around and are very hard to spot so your dive guide may need a little time to locate them.

The Ornate Ghostpipe likes to hang vertically in a bush. Its camouflage and colour nearly make it impossible to find. This one is a very small one and hopefully it will hang around for a few months. It’s always nice when you spot something so small and unique. It was also taken in 10 meters of water which makes it perfect for every diver to view.
