Maya Corner is the Phi Phi Leh side of Maya Bay, where the route starts just north of the beach and follows the coastline into a swim-through, a steep wall, and cavern sections. It is a scenic, structure-rich dive that rewards careful buoyancy and a measured pace through the darker corner of the site.

Depth range, seasonality, and planning context.

5m - 25m
Depth Note
The dive starts shallow at the bay entrance, with a standout swim-through and wall around 16-18 m and broader structure down to about 25 m.
Best Season
Year-round; clearest from February to May
Typical Conditions
Mostly calm to mild, with the inner bay calmer than the outer corner and a darker feel under the pinnacle and wall sections.
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Treat the cavern as a real overhead feature and keep buoyancy tight through the swim-through and wall. The outer corner can feel more active than the bay interior, so brief the line carefully before entry.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Features include a swim-through, a steep wall at 16–18 m, and a cavern for appropriately certified divers.
Freediving
The main route is a scuba site rather than a freedive stop, because the best features sit in the swim-through, wall, and cavern sections.
Snorkeling
Snorkelling is better in the sheltered bay areas than on the corner itself; the signature features sit underwater and suit scuba planning.
