Racha Noi, Banana Rock
★★★★☆
(1,295)
A gently sloping field of dense stag horn coral leads to a large boulder formation from around 12m to 20m. From the boulders it’s a nice drift either South into Banana bay or North where there are more boulder formations in the shallows
Schooling snapper and fusiliers hang around the boulder. Octopus and cuttlefish are often found here. Look out for smashing mantis shrimp in the rubble areas
