About this site

North Pinnacle is a wall and pinnacle dive at Racha Noi, in the waters off Phuket in Thailand, with a depth range of 5 to 40 metres and a strong to very strong current.

The dive starts as a wall with hard coral and schooling fish around it. Further north the wall drops quickly to near 40 metres, and a huge pinnacle rises from the bottom almost to the surface. Bigger schooling fish are normally found around the pinnacle and the huge rocky boulders, and manta rays are occasionally seen here.
