Loh Samah Bay

Also known as: Lohsamah Bay

Inside the bay a shallow hard coral garden with many anemones suits snorkellers and new divers. Most dives trace the walls of the little islet in the middle of the bay, and a full lap fits into a single tank. Its outer side is deeper, and on the east side a narrow channel is lined with soft corals, sea whips and gorgonian fans. Turtles feeding on bubble coral, moray eels, lionfish and the occasional seahorse are seen here. Liveaboards often moor in the bay overnight, and at night the walls come alive with shrimps, crabs and painted lobsters.
