KO TANGA & KO CHUKU

Koh Tanga and Koh Chuku, halfway between Butang and Tarutao offer great snorkelling, diving and fishing. Well worth a visit en route to either destination.

KOH TANGA
58 miles from Koh Lanta Lighthouse

The best anchorage is found on the east or west coasts between the north and south Tangas, depending on wind direction and ground swell. Alternative daytime anchorage can be found at (C) in deeper water in 15-20 metres off the southern end of Koh Tanga.

KOH CHUKU
60 miles from Koh Lanta Lighthouse

Fantastic daytime anchorages can be found anywhere around Koh Chuku on the sandy bottom. Moorings are available. Abundance of fish life and baby sharks make this a must stop for aquatic enthusiasts.
