Koh Tachai, the Dome is a superb Diving Site of the Surin Islands! The marine life is teeming and the spot is famous for big fishes as well as for small creatures. The spot is famous for the great number of Leopard sharks you can see in a single dive! Manta Rays are common visitors too and Whale sharks can be spotted sometimes too. The site consists of a coral plateau starting at 12 m deep and goind down to 35 m deep. Diving in Ko Tachai can be challenging and this spot is better suited to experienced divers.
