Thailand :: Pattaya : Shark Fin Rock

This site consists of a rock ridge covered in hard corals and barrel sponges, larger pelagics are often spotted here.

Samaesan Hole
Close by is the "Samaesan Hole" which is usually visited by technical divers wanting to reach the murky depths using Trimix. Currents can be savage, no light penetrates 90 meters of water, its in the middle of a shipping lane and used to be a miltary ammo dump. If you want to go this deep consult your technical instructor as the depths at here are way beyond recreational limits. There are several dive operators in Pattaya that offer DSAT courses and this dive will be part of them.
