About this dive site

This dive site presents a unique opportunity to explore a deliberately sunk ship. The wreck, which is 47 meters in length, was intentionally submerged on March 19, 2014, creating a new underwater attraction. It rests almost upright, exhibiting a slight list of 20 degrees, oriented from north to south (bow towards the stern). Located approximately 1 kilometer east of Piley Bay on Ko Phi Phi Ley, this site offers an interesting dive experience. The ship’s orientation and position contribute to its distinctive appearance underwater.
