Koh
Ha is about 2 hours from Koh Lanta and consisits of five small islans
(Ha is 5 in Thai). In fact there are six small islands - evidently
one got overlooked! The group of 5 islands offers great diving opportunities
and is picteuresque topside which makes surface intervals a pleasure.
With a maximum depth of 34 metres as well as plenty of shallow reefs
there is something for everyone.
Kho Ha! This group of stunning and remote islands is situated about
a 1 and a half hour boat trip from Aqua Visions Dive Center in Ao
Nang beach. (Ha means 5 in the local dialect and since Koh Ha is
actually made up of six small islands someone must have miscalculated!)
Koh Ha is one of our favourite sites as there are (nearly) always
very favourable conditions, and we can spend the surface intervals
in a place of incredible natural beauty.
Depths range here from 3 to 34 metres with an abundance of marine
life attracted by the Islands swiss cheese like labyrinth of small
caves and caverns. Our personal favourite is a cavern with two entrances
at 5 and 16 metre depths. The cathedral like interior of this cave
stretches 30 metres above the surface, and light filtering in through
the water creates a magical atmosphere. Whilst inside this cave
the surface is accessible at any time so even the less experienced
diver can visit this truly unforgettable site
