Dive Site : Koh Yung - Aritficial Reef

Dive Site : Koh Yung Pinacle (Hin Yung)

 

One of our favourite dive sites on Phi Phi.  Hin Yung is a submerged pinnacle starting at 5m and dropping to a maximum of 25m.  Rarely visited by most dive centers due to its location right on the northern end of Phi Phi Don island, the site remains pristine and is covered in pink and purple soft corals.

All types of marine life can be found here, from camouflaged ornate ghost pipefish and scorpionfish to sleeping leopard sharks and hunting trevally.

Currents can be strong at this site and advanced planning with tide charts is required.  However in good conditions this site is suitable for all experience levels. 

 

Koh Yung Artificial Reef

 

The site that time forgot!  These structures were sunk several years ago but due to their remote location were rarely visited.  Over time, divers and boat captains forgot how to find them, and now we are the only remaining dive center on Phi Phi who can still locate them!  These man-made structures have become home to abundant marine life including rare nudibranches and large schools of yellow snappers.  They feature 4 intricately carved, larger-than-life statues, a temple entrance, the big birds (above), a small wreck and some artificial reef blocks.

The Statues are located a short 20-minute boat ride from Leisure Dive Center.  At 10-20 meters depth, the site is only suitable for certified (open water or above) divers.
