Blacktip reef sharks and turtles are frequently encountered in the open water away from the reef structure.

Keep your eye on the blue water away from the wall, as blacktip reef sharks and turtles often appear in open water rather than close to the reef itself. Visibility tends to be at its best in the morning before any boat traffic stirs things up.
Located along the east coast of Phi Phi Leh Island, south of the entrance to Pileh Lagoon.
