About Hin Pueng
Hin Pueng is a Rayong boat dive split into west and east pinnacles, with a coral-covered wall on one side and schooling fish on the other. The site is known for hard coral, mixed reef structure, and a route that often rewards a second pass if you want to see both sections properly. Boat timing and current changes matter as much as the bottom topography, so the best dives are the ones where you stay relaxed and let the pinnacles reveal themselves piece by piece. When conditions are settled, it can deliver barracuda, snapper, frogfish, pufferfish, morays, and occasional whale sharks alongside the coral.
