Koh Bida Nai and Koh Bida Nok are two spectacular limestone rocks jutting out the water just south oh Koh Phi Phi. They are really impressive to view above sea level and even more impressive under the water when you go scuba diving.

Koh Bida Nok is one of my favourite dive sites in the Andaman Sea due to the marine diversity and amazing topography. One minute you can be swimming along a reef wall, floating in a garden of soft corals or cruising by some of the biggest sea fans you may ever experience whilst encountering Black Tip Sharks, Leopard Sharks, Turtle, Cuttlefish, Trevally, and smaller critters like Ghostpipe Fish, and Shrimps.

Below are some great photo’s taken at Koh Bida Nok by Tasha an Instructor who works on Koh Lanta. The first few shots are of a Sea Horse which has been hiding in the same fan for a few years, they do look very shy when you view them.

This is a great silhouette shot of a swimming Leopard Shark

Thank you Tasha for sharing your photo’s with AmazingLanta. They are great!

If you would like to go diving around the Koh Bida Islands why not join a day trip which departs Koh Lanta around 8am and returns around 15:30. Or how abaout a Liveaboard trip on the MV Flying Seahorse Koh Lanta’s only Liveaboard operator.
