Racha Yai Dive Sites - Bungalow Bay South Wall
Depth: 5-20m
Current: Mild-Moderate
Experience: Beginner
The dive site got its name from the luxury resort that is located on the white sand beach. The bay itself has a deep curve which has two side which are both suitable for diving.
The site has very shallow reef all along the wall, and close to the beach. Here there are coral blocks in white sand bottoms, as you progress deeper along the wall the topography changes to boulder formations, which extend to around 20m
Similar wall dive as the North wall at the southern end of the bay featuring soft and hard coral in the middle of the dive site turning into rocky boulders towards the end of the dive
Schooling barracuda can often be seen, with the rock formations containing many moray eels, in the sand khules stingrays camouflage themselves by becoming half buried.
Part way along the reef there are reef balls, or artificial reef which has been in place for many years, these have coral and sponge life growing on them and are often used by octopus to hide in.
In the boulder formations at the end of the dive look out for hawksbill turtles as well as many clown fish in the anemones.
