About Koh Rang Pinnacle / Hin Daeng Ga
Koh Rang Pinnacle (also known as Hin Daeng Ga) is widely considered the best dive site in the Koh Chang/Koh Rang area. The deep pinnacle sits within the Koh Rang Marine Park, where fishing restrictions have allowed marine life to flourish. Large schools of barracuda and trevally are common, and the pinnacle is decorated with magnificent soft corals and sea fans. The depth and occasional current make this a site for experienced divers.
