Arrecife de Koh Tang con coral poco profundo, vida macro y deriva impulsada por la corriente.
Acerca de Giraffe
Giraffe es un sitio de arrecife de Koh Tang llamado así por el árbol parecido a una jirafa en los acantilados sobre la bahía. Combina un inicio de coral poco profundo con corales duros y blandos, nudibranquios, pequeños peces de arrecife y visitantes más grandes como jureles y cobias, y la corriente puede convertirlo en una inmersión a la deriva cuando las condiciones acompañan.

Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Treat current as part of the plan and keep the dive guide-led; the site is shallow enough to tempt a relaxed approach, but the drift window can change that quickly.
Access Restrictions
Plan a long boat run to Koh Tang from Sihanoukville; this is a remote offshore island with limited civilian infrastructure and operator-led access.
Legal Notes
Follow local operator and island access rules, especially because Koh Tang has a military presence and very limited civilian facilities.
Local Intel For Giraffe
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba
Best as a guided boat dive. It is shallow enough to stay training-friendly, but current can make it feel much more dynamic.
Freedive
Freediving only makes sense on the shallowest calm-day sections, and the site is primarily built for scuba.
Snorkel
Snorkelers can enjoy the shallow coral and clear water on calm days, but the boat logistics and current favor scuba.
