About this site
Waterfall Wall is the steepest wall around Racha Yai Island, off Phuket, found between bays 4 and 5 on the eastern side of the island. It drops quickly to 25 metres and beyond, and the dive covers 10 to 25 metres.
The wall has a good variety of hard corals and schooling fish. The current is moderate to strong, and the dive is listed as suitable for beginners.
Early morning dives give a good chance of leopard sharks, stingrays and bigger fish such as tuna, mackerel, jacks and barracuda. Manta rays are seen on occasion on this southeastern wall.
