Koh Khram Noi is a reef site located in the Far Islands of Thailand. Accessible only by boat, the site features depths ranging from 5 to 11 metres with an average of 8 metres, making it suitable for beginners. Divers and snorkellers encounter mild currents and visibility typically between 3 and 4 metres. The reef structure consists of hard corals, sea fans, and large sponges. Due to the limited visibility, using a torch is recommended to observe the reef details. The site is also open for night diving, which allows for a focused exploration of the reef environment.

Because visibility can be on the shorter side, take a torch even on daytime dives to bring out the colours of the sea fans and sponges up close. Night dives here can actually work in your favour, as the reduced visibility matters less when you are moving slowly and focusing on a small area of reef at a time.
