About Buoyancy World
Buoyancy World is a shallow Koh Tao training site built around artificial reef structures, tunnels, hoops, and coral nurseries that make it ideal for buoyancy practice and steady skills work. It is better suited to calm scuba sessions and slow observation than to big reef drama, but the site still attracts wrasse, nudibranchs, and other reef life onto the artificial habitat.
