About Stone Coral Garden
Stone Coral Garden is a shallow Phuket reef where large hard-coral formations rise toward the surface and create bright shafts of light between the bommies. It works well as an easy reef dive or snorkel stop, with schools of small fish weaving through the coral and larger visitors like barracuda, morays, and snapper appearing around the deeper edge.

Scuba Diving
Stone Coral Garden suits easy reef laps, fish watching, and beginner-friendly photography around the coral structures before the site tapers to sand.
