Hin Muang - Hin Daeng diving sites

In the midst of the Andaman Sea and many kilometres from the mainland are located two adjacent rocks, 'Muang' - Purple and 'Daeng' - Red, indicating the colours of the soft corals that adorn them. there are also sea fans, large black corals, fishes that range in size from tiny to enormous, such as Whale Sharks, Manta Rays and Great Barracudas, and small rare animals like the Harlequin Shrimp.

Hin Muang - Hin Daeng is also the best wall dive site in Thailand. Getting there is troublesome, since you must take a live-aboard boat from Phuket; however, just about everyone who visits believes it's worthwhile. since the site is representative of the Andaman, everything can be seen here. It is also the most gorgeous dive site in the South Andaman and one of the most gorgeous in Thai seas.
