With its 10 dive sites Racha Yai offers some of the best year around diving in the Phuket area. On the west side of the island is beautiful Bungalow Bay famous for its clear waters and soft coral gardens.

The best diving at Racha Yai, however, is along the East Coast where good visibility and prevailing currents allow for a gentle drift dive along sloping rocky reefs that are abundant in hard coral forests. For more advanced divers, off the Ter Bay there is an interesting wreck dive in depths of 25-35 meters.

You'll find large schools of false barracudas hovering over the reef while on the reef itself expect to find octopus, cuttlefish and the more common tropicals.

Divers of all levels and experience can visit Racha Yai as the diving is easy and gentle.
