HTMS Kled Kaew Ship Wreck is a boat dive near Phi Phi Leh with an upright artificial-reef wreck, open decks, and enough structure for a deliberate scuba route. It fits certified divers who want a deeper wreck plan, current-aware timing, and dense fish life rather than a casual shallow reef.

Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Treat it as an advanced wreck dive. Keep buoyancy tight around the structure, and treat any penetration as overhead environment that only belongs with proper training and supervision.
Access Restrictions
Boat access only; most operators expect Advanced Open Water or equivalent wreck/deep experience and will time the dive around tide conditions.
Legal Notes
Inside Hat Noppharat Thara-Mu Ko Phi Phi National Park; follow park rules and any operator limits on penetration, mooring, and group size.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Best for AOW or equivalent divers who are comfortable with current, buoyancy, and supervised wreck exploration.
Freediving
Not a practical freedive target; the depth and wreck layout make it a scuba site.
Snorkeling
Not a snorkel site; the wreck sits too deep for meaningful surface viewing.
