Phi Phi Shark Point
Hin Bida is a submerged rocky outcrop, eight kilometres south of Phi
Phi Leh. The north side drops to sand at 21m, and the south to 18m.
This Shark Point is famed for its leopard sharks. If you don't see them swimming past on their own errands, you will see them sleeping peacefully on the sand around the reef.
Whilst on the reef you'll see schools of blue-lined snappers and harlequin sweetlips, amongst the colourful featherstars, plume worms and crinoids. You can also enjoy searching in the crags for moray eels, black and white banded sea snakes, porcupinefish, boxfish, lobsters and red octopus.
