Maya Corner, Maya Bay
★★★★☆
(2,530)
Found on the west side of Koh Phi Phi Lei is the beautiful Maya Bay, made famous for being the location of the movie ‘The Beach.’ The dive site of Maya Corner starts just inside the bay’s northern entrance, and follows the coastline north. It is a steep shelved reef, with occasional sections of walls.
You have a great opportunity to see turtles, both green and hawksbill. It is normal to see two or three on one dive. Stingrays can sometimes be found here, as well as black-tip reef sharks.
