About Shark Point (Hin Bida)
Shark Point (Hin Bida) is Phi Phi’s signature shark reef, a submerged pinnacle system with shallow tops, sandy patches and colorful coral growth. It is famous for leopard sharks, but the reef also turns up rays, turtles, morays and lots of small life. The site works best when a local operator can match the dive to a weak-current window and keep the route on the shark line.
