About Banana bay
Banana Bay is a Trat-area reef dive with a broad experience range, where gentler sections can suit training and easier sightseeing while other parts of the site can feel more active when the water starts moving. It is best treated as a flexible reef plan with hard coral, some soft coral, and enough fish life to reward divers who match the route to the day’s current.
