Koh Chang pinnacle dive with corals, groupers, and schooling fish.
Boat logistics and marine-park planning are easiest with a Koh Chang operator.
Hin Luk Bat is one of Koh Chang’s signature pinnacle dives, with a rocky core, coral-covered sides, and plenty of schooling fish around the structure. Divers come here for morays, stingrays, barracuda, groupers, and the way the route opens up as you circle from the deeper side to shallower water. It is a boat dive that rewards tidy buoyancy and a relaxed multilevel profile rather than a simple swim-through.

Scuba Diving
Boat-access pinnacle with a deeper starting side, a shallower wraparound, and coral and fish life concentrated around the rock.
Freediving
Only the shallow upper section makes sense for breath-hold work; the site is fundamentally a scuba pinnacle.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is only sensible on the calmest shallow top and is not the main use case.
