Hin Klang Reef (Phi Phi Don)
7° 47.3′ N · 98° 46.9′ E
Several acres of hard coral heads between Bamboo Island and the northern tip of Phi Phi Don, rising from about 10 m. The Pilot calls it among the best diving outside the Similans, and also one of the area's main hazards.
Practical
Southeast Asia Pilot position 07°47.278N 98°46.943E, 6 nm from Ton Sai Bay; OpenStreetMap maps the reef at 7.7921N 98.7795E. No safe overnight anchorage: lunch or dive stop only, in relatively calm weather, and never leave the boat unattended. Chart plotters may not be accurate here. Give it a very wide berth under way; returning from Bamboo Island, pass well north or south of it.
