Aow Leuk is a shallow and very easy diving site in Koh Tao Island. It is a perfect spot to learn scuba diving. The sandy bottom is gently going down with several nice coral formations along the slope. The reef life is nice with beautiful parrot fishes, snappers, juvenile groupers and cute turtles. You can spot a school of yellow tail barracuda too. Maximum depth is 12 meters deep. It is also a great Snorkelling site and a perfect location for night diving. Aow Leuk is in the bay situated on the East Coast of Koh Tao. Enjoy this peaceful and relaxing place! However this very easy spot is very popular, so it gets crowded during the high season.
You can dive Aow Leuk all year long. Access: from the Shore. See the map of Aow Leuk on the right for the exact location.
