Phang Nga

Phang Nga is an administrative region on the Andaman coast of southern Thailand. The area centers on calm marine waters accessed from towns around Phuket and Phang Nga Bay, with divers typically exploring nearshore reefs, limestone formations, and sheltered bays. Local diving often focuses on boat-accessible sites to the west and south of the region, with shallow reefs and potential for macro life, depending on conditions. The region is best approached from regional hubs like Phuket or Krabi, with ongoing development of dive centers and shore-and-boat trips serving both local and visiting divers. Note: the region’s current catalog shows limited listed dive centers and sites, so planning may require contacting operators for up-to-date access.
