Red Rock: Also called Nang Yuan Pinnacle also has some interesting swim-throughs. It is often dived from north to south, finishing on the Japanese Garden dive site, a shallow site with staghorn and table coral gardens that are in better condition than in other areas. Blue spotted stingrays may be seen in the sand. Banded sea snakes are occasionally seen on the reef.
Twin Peaks is a good beginners dive site that reaches a maximum of 18m deep and has weak currents.
White Rock (Hin Kao) is made up of two large granite boulders sitting on a sandy bottom at 20m and starting at 2m below the surface. Blue spotted stingrays can be seen in the sand. At 10m there is a coral garden with lots of fish life including butterflyfish, angelfish, pufferfish, cornetfish, groupers and moray eels.
