Tanintharyi Region

Tanintharyi Region in Myanmar covers a long coastline along the Andaman Sea with a mix of sheltered bays, limestone reefs, and offshore pinnacles. Diving here tends to feature warm tropical waters, moderate visibility, and a variety of reef habitats accessible from coastal towns and the sparsely populated islands. The area includes several dive sites around the Kawthoung District and nearby islands, with small operators offering boat trips to more remote reefs and islets. Expect macro life, schools of reef fish, and occasional larger pelagic encounters in deeper channels.
