Itinerary

FUN DIVING TRIP TO SAIL ROCK FROM KOH PHANGAN This trip is for CERTIFIED DIVERS ONLY where you will enjoy a 2 dive trip to Sail Rock from Ko Pha Ngan! This is undoubtedly one of the best dive sites in the Gulf of Thailand. SAIL ROCK DIVE SITE This large pinnacle (which begins above sea level) provides a superb wall dive effect. Together with a number of surrounding smaller pinnacles, Sail Rock offers an amazingly varied topography. One of the most famous features of Sail Rock is probably its chimney. Here you can swim into the rock at 18m, up through the vertical chimney and exit either at 12m or 8m. MARINE LIFE With a variety of large pelagic fish including Barracuda and Mackerel, they form huge schools around the rock. Present on the rock itself is an incredibly varied ecosystem formed by countless species of fish. Groupers, Wrasse, Snapper, Batfish, Angelfish and Damselfish can all be seen at Sail Rock. Numerous interesting species of marine life such as Scorpionfish, Moray Eels, Shrimps, Nudibranchs and Sea Slugs can also be found both on the wall and amongst the corals. If you are really lucky, you might get to meet Sail Rock’s resident Whale Sharks!

Take the plunge

Water temp was perfect , maybe slightly too warm. But a comfortable dive non the less. Vendors were knowledgeable and happy to help. Shop taxi picked us up from our accommodation which made transport very easy. Friendly staff and crew.

Really amazing staff and great groupings for advanced divers

Published on Aug, 2023

I did a bunch of fun dives at Sail Rock with this shop, and was so impressed with all of the staff at Asia Blue. Ash was an amazing divemaster who catered the dives to the experience level of the divers, found loads of amazing wildlife, was super attentive, and led us through really long dives which I appreciated a lot. Also a super fun person to dive with and so sweet! Storm was also super great to dive with, as he found loads of wildlife and we had super long dives as well. Lili, Olesya, Tom, the boat captain, and crew Miu and Ao were all such a pleasure on the boat as well and all so attentive and caring. The groupings by Jannes were also absolutely incredible. Divers are grouped by level, even if it means creating more groups. This says a lot about how much the staff here cares about the experience of the diver, regardless of how much extra time/cost it might take. I was always paired with other experienced divers in very small groups of 1 - 2, which was amazing. Asia Blue also now own one of the biggest and nicest boats on the island, which makes a difference on the hour long boat ride to Sail Rock which can sometimes be rocky. Breakfast (coffee, fruit, eggs, etc) and lunch (rice, curry, pasta, fruit, etc) was super nice to have on the boat.

Memorable diving

Published on Jun, 2023

This was a brilliant trip and we really enjoyed it. Michaela in the dive centre was really helpful and responsive, and booked us on to the trip and arranged a pick up and drop off for us. The boat trip to and from the site was a bit choppy, but the boat was modern and comfortable, and the trip was well organised. The food was also really good and we appreciated some breakfast given the early start. Our dive master, Johannes, was fantastic. He was informative and passionate about diving and sea life, he was so attentive and we felt calm and safe with him. The diving was amazing and we saw shoals of barracudas, trevally, Queen fish and bat fish with so much more. There were so many anemones and soft coral at the second spot, and both sites were teeming with life. Sail Rock is an amazing dive site with so much to see and we would love to come back.

Amazing day out at Sail Rock

Published on Jun, 2023

We had an amazing day at Sail Rock. Communication was great and the pick up /drop off from our resort was seamless. The team at the dive centre were really friendly and our dive master Ash was just awesome. It had been a while since our last dive so he took time to go through the basics again with us on the way to the dive site and made us feel very comfortable. Unfortunately our first dive had poor visibility but by the second dive it cleared and we had such a great time. Ash was great at pointing out different creatures and was incredibly attentive and checked in with us frequently. Would definitely recommend and will absolutely come back if we get the chance!

Lovely diving with the amazing instructor Ash!

I loved diving here, it was absolutely beautiful. For being a not so experienced diver, I felt completely safe with my instructor.
