Hin Daeng & Hin Muang
Palm Beach Divers organize diving and snorkeling trips to Hin Daeng, Koh Ha, Koh Phi Phi and the King Cruiser Wreck. Hin Daeng and Hin Muang, in southern Thailand is ca. 3 hours from Koh Lanta by boat and has manta's and whale sharks.
Hin Daeng (Red Rock) and Hin Muang (Purple Rock) are named after the beautiful red and purple soft corals you'll see once you are submerged. These two dive sites are rated as Five Star, World Class, dive sites and, with the deepest drop-off in Thailand contributing to the highest concentration of Whale Shark sightings in Thailand, it's not surprising that these two dive sites draw divers and photographers from all around the world.
Both marine life and coral formation is rich and plentiful at each of these sites. You can expect to see large Giant Moray Eels, large Leopard and Grey Reef Sharks, high numbers of reef fish and a higher concentration of bigger fish such as Tuna, Barracudas, Rainbow Runners and Travellie, but most people come to Hin Daeng and Hin Muang to swim with, and observe, the huge, yet graceful, Manta Rays. (If you are very lucky, you may see more than ten on one dive!)
The other big attraction at these sites are the Whale Sharks. The season when these huge marine creatures pass by Hin Daeng and Hin Muang is from November to May. During this time, there are occasional sightings of single and groups of these gentle giants. Just in case you aren't lucky enough to see them, there are still many other nice fish and corals to be seen. Swimming amongst a huge school of Barracuda or spotting a large Shark cruising by beneath you can be very exciting!
Because of their depth, these dive sites are more suitable for Advanced divers or divers with more than 20 dives. If you want to, you can do your Advanced Deep Dive together with your Instructor, on one of these dive sites.
