Overview

Koh Doc Mai doslova znamená „ostrov kvetov“. Tento malý vápencový ostrov sa tiahne zvisle nadol 24-28 m a vytvára okolo seba múr. Po stenách je veľa trhlín a trhlín vo všetkých hĺbkach, ale najnavštevovanejšou návštevou je veľká jaskyňa a malá jaskyňa nachádzajúca sa na východnej strane ostrova. Na ostrov nie je prístup.

Vďaka veľkému množstvu malých tvorov je táto lokalita obľúbená pre prevádzkovateľov potápania. Medzi druhy, ktoré sa často nachádzajú pozdĺž stien, patria morské koníky s tigrím chvostom, ozdobené dúhy a čert. Choďte pomaly a skontrolujte štrbiny v stene alebo morské ventilátory a môžete ich zbadať, keď sa pohybujú.

Steny sú rajom aj pre makrofotografov, pretože sa tu zaručene objavia pestré nahosemenné, ploché červy, drobné bielooké murény a skupiny 10 a viac tancujúcich kreviet. Preskúmajte trhliny a malé štrbiny, či nenájdete obrovské murény, a vychutnajte si húfy chrapkáča žltého, trevally a chrapkáča, ktoré zvyčajne plávajú pozdĺž steny.

Potápajte sa pomaly, ak nechcete nechať ujsť malé stvorenia, ktorými je táto potápačská lokalita známa.

FAQs

How do I get to your location? Is transfer included in the price?

Roundtrip transfer is not included in the price.

  • Elixir resort – 400 THB (5 mins. drive)
  • Loh Pared Beach Area (Santhiya Resort, Royal Yao Yai, Blue Bay resort, Yao Yai Resort) – 700 THB (15 mins. drive)
  • North of Koh Yao Yai (Anantara, Koh Yao Yai Village, Hillside resort, Thiwson, Baan Taranya – 800 THB (25 mins. drive)

We recommend renting a motorbike to come to our office (250 THB/day). There is very little traffic on Koh Yao Yai and motorbike is also great way to explore the island.

Do I need an Open Water Diver (OWD) certification?

Yes, OWD certificate is required for all our diving trips with the exception of our SCUBA diving courses.

Why is 2 tanks dive with Elixir Divers more expensive than with companies from other islands?

Koh Yao Yai is an emerging diving destination, perfectly positioned near stunning sites like Shark Point and Anemone Reef. While the island is still developing and hasn’t attracted large tourist crowds, this is what makes it a hidden gem for divers seeking a quieter experience. We pride ourselves on offering personalized, detail-oriented service, ensuring that every dive is memorable. Our brand-new, custom-made diving speedboat is designed for comfort, accommodating up to 16 divers, but we prefer small groups of 4-12 to enhance your experience. Unlike larger operators that rely on slower boats with up to 30 divers, we focus on quality and intimacy. We equip our divers with top-quality Apeks regulators, and our equipment is meticulously maintained by our dedicated team, ensuring safety and performance. While our pricing may be slightly higher—averaging 1,000 THB (25€) for two dives—it reflects the exceptional value and experience we provide. Just check our reviews to see what our clients say. It's important to note that while prices in Thailand haven’t changed significantly in over a decade, the costs of maintaining high standards have risen. Many operators cut corners by competing solely on price, often sacrificing quality or personal attention to divers. We believe in investing in our services to provide an unparalleled diving experience. Join us at Koh Yao Yai for an unforgettable dive adventure!

I am flying later today...

Divers should wait a minimum of 18 hours after their last dive before taking a flight or ascending to altitude.
