Tin Lizzy (Wreck)
★★★★★
(1,074)
About 2 kilometers straight out from the middle of Bangtao Beach lies an old tin mining dredger or excavator. The wreck is surrounded with concrete blocks, making a huge artificial reef. This site is considered one the best dive sites along the west coast of Phuket.
This site is home to many fish species. Highlights for Phuket dive sites are stone fish, flatfish, seahorse, ghost-pipe fish, bat fish, marble ray, scorpion fish, and giant moray eels.
