Description: Sail Rock (or Hin Bae in Thai) is a small vertically walled island, halfway to Koh Phangnan. One of the premier dive sites inside the Gulf of Thailand, it's walls drop straight down to around 20 metres where they meet the sand which gradually banks away. There is a second enormous rock just a short swim from Sail Rock which doesn't break the surface, plus other small rocks scattered around the island.

This site is probably most famous for it's awesome vertical 'chimney' swimthrough, running from 6 metres right down to 18.

Marine Life Highlights: Lots of pelagic fish around the rock, scorpion fish hiding on the coral covered walls and ledges plus a mix of colourful reef fish. Whale sharks are also sometimes sighted here.

Corals: The walls of the island are covered with mixed hard corals.

Other: Due to the long journey time it's best to dive Sail Rock as part of a full day trip, perhaps in conjunction with the Samran Pinnacles, The Davy Jones' wreck or even Shark Island.
