Sail Rock Dive Site — Thailand

About Sail Rock

The Gulf of Thailand's premier dive site, Sail Rock is a massive granite pinnacle rising from 40 meters to break the surface. The vertical chimney (The Chimney) is its signature feature — a hollow shaft divers can ascend through from 18 to 5 meters. Whale sharks visit seasonally between March and June, while resident schools of batfish, barracuda, and giant groupers provide year-round entertainment.
