North Bay Racha Noi

North Bay as the name would suggest is situated on the northern point of Racha Noi. The bay consists of three vastly dive options. The bay itself is relatively shallow and is often well sheltered and ideal for beginner divers learning to scuba dive.

On the eastern side of the bay is a long pinnacle that takes most of the dive to cover ending with a large drop off that reaches down to well over 40m. The western side takes you through to some spectacular rock formations that are like no other in the area.
