WHALESHARK !!

Yesterday was a lucky day for some on the Scandinavian Chang Diving Center Boat. On the close by divesite Blueberry Hill there was a Whaleshark seen. Our Captains were the first who started to jump in the water: 'shark, big shark". And sure the rest followed. Around 5,5 - 6 meters long the biggest fish was circling around our boat and played around. .. Unfortunately no camera .. next time for sure! and hopefully he/she do not let us wait to long for that .

Snorkeling

Happy Birthday.. what a present, to the 60th birthday she got a day snorkeling on the scandinavian chang diving center boat!
We went to Hin Raap and Hin Luk Bat. Both very nice divesits but the snorkeling should not be forgotten .. on Hin Raap there is a huge area with 4 meters depth where corals grow and fish wait to get seen and short on the surfacing rock it is a lot to see as well. On Hin Luk Bat between the 4 rocks we call it 'the aquarium' and you can be sure that there is the right reason for it.. You should come and see it with your own eyes.

Hin Sam Sao

This is a close by Dive/Snorkeling Site. Opposite from Kai Bae Beach, kind of in the middle of Koh Chang and than just a bit outside (of course). The sail with the Scandinavian Chang Diving Center boat is only 25 minutes to this nice site. If you sail with one of the other companys who are leaving from Bang Bao (byside that they do not go there) it would be around 1 hour... anyway that they do not go there means as well that there are no other diveschool boats and with that no other divers ....
Anyway i got off of the point. The divesite is visible through 3 rocks surfacing by low tide 5 rocks are visible. The bottom line is at 12 to 14 meters depht and there is a upper level of 6 to 7 meters. A lot of wipe corals are in the area, on the east part you will find some anemones. Parallel to every rock is a small wall some smaller some a bit bigger covert with some hump- and disc corals. It is a perfect spot to discover nude-branch. a lot of damsel fishes and snappers. And like yesterday a huge group of great barracudas, unluckily i did not got a good pic of those. Maybe next time..

On every dive you can discover stonefish and mureys. A lot of reef fishes are around and so much more .. just come and ask for Hin Luk Bat when you dive around Koh Chang. It is only 40 minutes sailing down there!! Today i show some macro's.
