Koh Bitsi Anchorage

6° 33.9′ N · 99° 20.5′ E

A small island off Adang's north-east corner with good holding close to shore on either side, chosen by season and swell, plus good snorkelling and diving.

Practical

Southeast Asia Pilot (anchorage G, 6°33.872N 99°20.533E, west side): good holding close to shore on the east or west coast, depending on season and ground swell. The Pilot's east-side waypoint (H) prints as 6°51.131N, which appears to be a typo, so the east anchorage is not given here. OpenStreetMap maps the island at this spot as Ko Lek; the Pilot calls it Koh Bitsi. Within the national park: moorings if present, no anchoring on coral.
