koh haa 1:
this pinnacle doesn't offer sheltered areas for beginners and is so less frequented by the dive centers. for fundivers an extraordinary divesite!
swimthroughs in the deeper parts with steep walls reaching up from 30+ metres and being covered with purple soft corals. these great rock formations in the south contain a diveable chimeney that guides divers from 14 m up to 5 m and a shallow cave with beautiful light.
the wall along the western and northern side invites for a great drift until the currents meet on the eastern tip and attract all kinds of pelagics for a hunt...
the easiest part is probably the southeast with it's gentle hard coral covered slope - cuttlefish often feed on this reef.
whale sharks seem to like this more remote pinnacle.
