Site details

Chumpon Pinnacle is a dive site in Thailand. Maximum depth is around 20 m. The site is reached by boat.

Current can strengthen quickly and unpredictably — the same current that draws in pelagic life can catch divers off guard; stay close to the guide and be prepared to descend/ascend on plan. Depth reaches 36-45 m at the base — air consumption and no-decompression time need active management; less experienced divers should stay on the shallower top of the pinnacle around 14 m.
