About Palong Wall
Palong Wall is a Phi Phi Leh wall dive with a sloping reef, shallow shark shelves, and short swim-throughs that break up the profile. It suits divers who want a scenic boat-day-trip wall rather than a pure drift, with buoyancy control and current timing mattering more than raw depth.
