Bungalow Bay North Wall is a boat-dived wall and reef-slope site on Racha Yai Island near Phuket. The north side combines staghorn coral, boulders, and a gently sloping wall with clear water, beginner-friendly entry conditions, and enough day-trip traffic that careful surface planning matters. It is best for divers who want an easy but scenic reef dive with plenty of marine life rather than a hard-conditions challenge.
