Fly By
Arrecife a la deriva en el norte de Koh Tang con cabezos coralinos y corriente
Operador local requerido
Remote Koh Tang access and current-led drift timing make a local operator essential.
Acerca de Fly By
Fly By es un arrecife a la deriva en el norte de Koh Tang para buceadores que buscan corriente, estructura y una línea de arrecife en movimiento en lugar de una inmersión estática. La ruta pasa sobre un fondo rocoso con cabezos coralinos cerca del borde menos profundo y mayor relieve más afuera. El horario de la embarcación importa porque el mejor buceo es aquel en el que el operador puede dejar y recoger al grupo sin complicaciones. Cuando las condiciones acompañan, el arrecife concentra mucho movimiento de peces y una sensación de agua abierta y rápida.

Detalles de planificación de Fly By
Rango de profundidad, temporada y contexto para planificar.
Profundidad reportada
2m - 20m
Nota de profundidad
The reef starts shallow and deepens to about 20m+, with the strongest coral around 12m. Use the deeper outer edge as the conservative limit.
Mejor temporada
November to May is the cleaner dry-season window for Koh Tang; June to October is wetter and should be treated more cautiously.
Condiciones habituales
Warm tropical water, strong current at Fly By, and generally good clarity on better days. Expect a drift-oriented boat plan rather than a relaxed shore entry.
Seguridad y acceso en Fly By
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Use a guide who knows the site, because the current can run fast and the island is remote. Plan gas reserves, drift timing, and surface pickup conservatively.
Access Restrictions
Boat access only; the island is remote and should be arranged through an operator familiar with Koh Tang.
Legal Notes
Koh Tang has a small military presence, so access should stay within operator-led permissions and local coordination.
Local Intel For Fly By
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba
This is a guided drift dive. The reef starts shallow, coral is strongest around the mid-water bommies, and the route deepens toward the outer edge, so air and pickup timing matter.
Freedive
Not a good freedive-first site. The current and boat logistics make it better for scuba drift diving than for casual breath-hold visits.
Snorkel
Snorkeling is not the intended use here. The site is boat-based and current-driven, so the useful terrain sits better in the scuba zone than at the surface.
