About this site

Bungalow Bay North Wall is a wall dive on the north side of the bay at Racha Yai, off Phuket in Thailand. It is dived at depths of 10 to 25 metres with a mild to moderate current, and a slightly deeper section on the outer corner of the bay has large boulders covered in soft corals.

Schooling barracuda are common, along with many lionfish and scorpionfish. Soft and hard corals cover the wall near the corner, and turtles and bigger pelagic fish occasionally pass. Moray eels and octopus are regular residents.

About half way along the bay, hollow concrete cubes were placed as an artificial reef in 2006. They now shelter nudibranchs, puffer fish, batfish and moray eels, and a ribbon eel may hide in the sand around them. A frogfish has lived in the robust acropora coral for many years, and anemones hold clownfish, porcelain crabs and shrimps.
