Rock Point (Chaloklum Bay east tip)

A miniature Sail Rock at the eastern tip of Chaloklum Bay, with small walls, swim-throughs and lots of fish, five minutes by longtail from the village.
Practical
Position approximate: the OpenStreetMap bay node for Ao Kong at the eastern end of Chaloklum Bay, which Chaloklum Diving calls Rock Point (Kong Yai / Koh Kong); the rock itself is not separately mapped. Chaloklum Diving: maximum depth 20+ m, small walls, swim-throughs, scenery and lots of fish; it is seasonal because visibility varies. About 5 minutes from the dive shop by longtail. Give the point a good berth when entering or leaving Chaloklum Bay under sail. Dive with a local operator, who knows the site's moorings and conditions.
