The Phi Phi Islands are an incredible diving experience. In the first 5 minutes of your dive at Koh Bida Nok, you're likely to be able to tick blacktip reef sharks off your list. It won't be just one, you could be swimming with a dozen or more! Sharks from half metre babies up to the 2m long adults patrol the shallows of the sheltered bay where we make the first drop. A great start to the day. Then it's off to'Turtle Rock' which is home to [...]
