Ao Leuk Point
With crystal clear warm water and a smooth sandy bottom, Ao Leuk must be one of the best locations to learn to dive in the world. Situated on the Southeast of Koh Tao its depth ranges from 10 to 18 metres. There are also rock formations, boulder corals and other coral tors to stimulate interest.
Known also as 'Swimming Pool Bay' it is easy to see why. Those who know what to look for will see Masked Porcupine Fish and Black-spotted Puffers, Jenkins Whiptail Rays and Blue Spotted Fan-tail Rays but all will see the many Cowries, Cushion Stars and Nudibranchs. Green and Hawksbill Turtles are sometimes sighted here but more commonly, various species of Wrasse, Peacock Sole and Crocodile Longhorns.
