Koh Waeo North

★★★★☆ (4,991)

Koh Waeo is a small island about 3 km out from the north end of Bangtao Beach. The island is small with little top-side vegetation. Underwater, however, the island is about 100 times larger than what you see from the surface. Around the site are many buoys installed to moor the boats.

Koh Waeo is a huge dive site and accommodates many big schools of fish like barracudas, snappers, fusiliers, and more. Larger fish pass this little outcrop on a regular basis.
