Diving on Kohh Pha Ngan
Koh Pha Ngan has a smaller, but no less active dive scene than the underwater mecca to the north, Koh Tao. Schools here offer trips to some of the Gulf's most popular dive sites of Sail Rock and the Southwest Pinnacle, which lie roughly halfway between Koh Pha Ngan and Koh Tao. There are also some quality dive sites closer to Koh Pha Ngan in the waters off Koh Ma, Haad Salad and Koh Tae Nok (the island to the south-west of Koh Pha Ngan which you pass as the your boat arrives at Thong Sala.
For snorkeling, your best bets are around the northwest of the island, off beaches such as Koh Ma, Haad Khom, Haad Salad, Haad Ya and Haad Chaophao.
Dive schools also arrange trips to the Angthong Marine National Park, with popular sites there including Koh Wao and Koh Yippon.
