About Moken Bay

The bottom is mostly sand with scattered coral patches and small rock features, so it works well for relaxed scuba, beginner training, and night dives focused on small marine life. It is a useful choice for divers who want a low-friction bay dive with calm water, easy navigation, and enough marine life for a relaxed photo session.
