Tanote Bay is an easy and relaxing dive site. It is located one km South of Laem Thian in a protected bay. The spot consists of a gentle slope going down to 18 meters deep with a nice reef to explore. The reef is healthy with good Coral and an interesting Marine life. It is a great site for dive training. It is also a great place to improve your skills in underwater photography with interesting picture opportunities. Tanote Bay is also a great place for Snorkelling in Koh Tao.
