Kong Hin Look Waao - Look Waao Pinnacle - กองหินลูกว่าว is an offshore pinnacle northeast of Koh Ran Kai with a small cave and a compact swim-through. It is a boat dive with a short, direct profile, so the main planning variables are sea state, current, and visibility rather than distance. Divers come here for mixed reef life, including butterflyfish, parrotfish, barracuda, snapper, and seasonal turtle sightings.
