Chon Buri Province

Chon Buri Province is a coastal province in eastern Thailand along the Gulf of Thailand. The region’s dive scene centers on the Gulf’s shallow, warm waters and easy access from Bangkok and regional hubs, with a mix of shore- and boat-based sites. Diving commonly features sandy or rocky bottoms, seagrass habitats, and modest visibility, suitable for recreational divers. The nearby Bang Lamung District acts as a gateway to local dive spots on the coast, including day trips to nearby reefs and wrecks. While not a major global destination, the area offers straightforward diving opportunities with inlets and shallow reefs suitable for beginners and those seeking convenient weekend dives.
