Diving and Snorkelling Koh Phi Phi and the Bida Islands

Koh Phi Phi Leh

If you've seen the film "The Beach", you might understand the magical effect the Phi Phi islands have on visitors. Stunning limestone cliffs covered in an untouched jungle, breathtaking turquoise lagoons and of course a spectacular underwater world. Koh Phi Phi has around 12 dive sites to choose from.

The dive sites around the Phi Phi islands offer overhangs, swim-throughs, canyons and gorges, hosting some large Gorgonians and amazing colourful soft corals and anemones. A huge diversity of marine life can be seen here, from Cleaner Shrimps and Anemone Crabs to Bearded Scorpion-fish, colourful Lionfish and brave little Clownfish.

Koh Bida Nok & Koh Bida Nai

One of the main attractions of the Bida islands (South of Koh Phi Phi) is the Leopard Shark. Although the Leopard Shark bears the name 'shark' it is a very docile and curious creature. Leopard Sharks spend most of the day resting on the sandy bottom, and, like most sharks, are most active and do their hunting at night.
