Shark Island Located just off the Southeast coast
of Koh Tao, Shark Island is one of the most popular dive sites in
the area.
Depths range from 28m and above at the southern
tip to the surface, and at the deeper depths you may find Leopard
and Reef Sharks.
At the shallow end you'll find beautiful gardens
of vividly colorful corals and anemones and at high tide it is even
possible to cross from one side of the southern island to the other.
This site offers a great range of fish including
the Blue Ringed Angel, Long Fin Banner, and if you are lucky the odd
resident Hawksbill Turtle.
Huge boulders and rock formations give this site
a great topography that is ideal for divers of all levels. |
