Description

This is best scuba dived with a local dive centre as it can be tricky but if tackled correctly in the correct conditions this is a rewarding wreck dive. As with all Koh Change dive sites it is not over dived either!

The Thonburi is a Thai warship that was sunk in the 1940's by the French over a colonial dispute. The wreck is quite close to the shore and in shallow water, currents can be strong and the visibility is usually poor. Best time to dive is at low and slack tides when the water is calm, usually better to arrange the dive with local fishermen who know the waters.
