Phi Phi
Dive Sites - Scuba Diving Koh Phi Phi
|
Actually
two Islands - Phi Phi Don and Phi Phi
Leh - these two awesome sisters languish in the sea like a pair
of emerald jewels studding the aquamarine waters of Phang Nga Bay.
It's one of the most picturesque islands in the world. You'll marvel at the stunning movie-set desert-island scenery both above and below the waterline.
Koh Phi Phi scuba diving ranks amongst the top
five dive destinations in Thailand. Limestone cliffs rise dramatically
out of the sea and plunge straight back down underwater, forming the
colourful soft coral walls for which Phi Phi is famous. There are more
than 15 different dive sites with many rugged walls, interesting caves
and cavern penetrations. Swim-through entrances are often obscured by
dazzling clouds of glassfish and gorgonians. Sea fans harbour pipefish,
seahorses and shrimpfish, keeping even the most experienced divers entertained
for days.
The islands lie in Krabi Province, so the sea life is substantially different to our other Thailand scuba destinations. In many places, the islands are fringed with shallow coral gardens, where hard and soft corals and sponges prosper harmoniously amongst the myriad marine life. Here's your best opportunity to happen across green and hawksbill turtles munching on bubble corals, black and white banded sea snakes, squid, angelfish, crocodile long-toms, black-tip reef sharks and leopard (zebra) sharks.
The diving in Phi Phi, along with its beautiful
movie-set beaches, seemingly endless number of coves and bays,
and laid-back life style appeals to holidaymakers from all walks of
life. Travellers, young backpackers, tropical island paradise seekers,
and those simply looking for a few days of fun, easy living in the sun,
are all delighted by the wide range of diving adventures that these
islands have to offer.
