On a peninsula around 80 kilometers north of Nha Trang is the idyllic paradise resort of Whale Island. The area has been associated with scuba diving for many years and it was here that Jacques Cousteau first discovered his passion for the underwater world. Diving is ideal for beginners and more experienced divers with gentle sloping beach dives, deep drop offs and high adrenaline drift diving. Marine life is equally as impressive and there is also the chance of spotting whale sharks or even whales and sharks as the waters soon get deep off the coast here.

There are several dive sites around the area including the following:

• Hon Trau Nam (Three Kings): Swimthoughs and caves, rays often seen resting.
• Hon Kho Trang: Two dive sites, coral gardens, good visibility and marine life.
• Hon Tai (Ear Island): Coral plateau, nurse and whitetips often spotted, sea slugs.
• Napoleon Rock: Sheltered site with sandy bottom, resident napoleon wrasse.
• Raoul’s Reef: Wall covered in feather stars, ghost pipefish found here.
• Bai Su: Caves at 15m, good for spotting nudibranchs, nice to dive at night.

It is almost the same size as Singapore but has been left alone by toursim for many years. Diving here has only been happening for a couple of years and new sites are still being discovered. Marine life is very similar to that found in the Gulf of Thailand with few big pelagics but a lot of smaller reef fish and breath-taking, pristine coral. Unfortunately evidence of dynamite fishing can be seen on some of the reefs here but the island does boast one of the best dive sites in the country with Turtle Island off the Northwest coast. We will update this page when further infomation becomes available.
