Whale Shark Wall, Ko Phi Phi
★★★★☆
(377)
Situated on the east side of Phi Phi Ley, Palong Bay is the next bay north of the famous Maya Bay, made famous by the movie “The Beach.” This dive is relatively easy and is rarely affected by currents. The dive heads south from Palong Bay towards Maya Bay.
Leopard sharks frequent this stretch and are commonly seen swimming rather than their normal resting on the sandy bottom.
