Richelieu Rock, Thailand

This limestone pinnacle supports over 200 species of soft corals and seahorses across its entire face, creating a wall of color that rivals any reef in Thailand. Currents here range from 1.5 to 3 knots, equivalent to moderate drift dives, ensuring consistent plankton blooms that fuel the fish aggregation. The site remains the top-rated dive location in Thailand for three consecutive years, a data-led achievement that underscores its unmatched concentration of marine biodiversity.
