Bang Bao

Bang Bao is situated in the south of the island. It is a unique fishing village along a pier, completely built on stilts. The pier ends in a picturesque small harbor. The fishermen are still very active, which is why Bang Bao is ‘the’ place to come and taste incredibly fresh seafood.

Our dive shop is almost at the end of the old pier, on the right-hand side, just before the harbor and the extended new pier. Our house offers a superb view of Bang Bao bay, which makes it a great place to spend some time enjoying the peace and quiet. BB divers is ideally situated, we can park our boat on the pier, and the dive sites are only a short boat trip away.

Bang Bao can be reached by taxi, or, if you are an experienced driver, the motorbike trip down here is great. The road is good but very hilly, there are some steep slopes offering great views of the island. Of course, if you are diving or snorkeling with us, we arrange your pick up.
