Nice I shaped thila which we dropped into and swam along one arm of. Some big reef sharks, napoleans, nudi. But of a current so were able to drift. Nice spot

Another thila, we swam right around it. Big overhangs to explore with huge lobsters. Pairs of nudi. Nice coral and nice dive. Something big lurking in the blue. Lots of sunfish on the way up and down

Mantas! 9 or 10 big mantas swooping around a cleaning station. Sitting on the bottom watching until another dive group crashed in. Mantas got nice and close, maybe 5-6ft away at times. Sand eels and one nudi added to it

25.1m - 55 min - Dived with Stephania from Best Dives Centara
Dive on a thila on way back, named as a turtle spotting thila. Lots of overhangs 20m down. Marine life was fairly dull. One sleeping turtle and some prawns around a moray eel, but little else. More life at the top in the shallows, but we didn’t play there for long.
