Koh Ron (Koh Rong Khon & Koh Rong Nang)
Two small satellite islands next to Koh Chuang and the Hardeep wreck, averaging about 6 m with a maximum around 25 m; they are split into two dives because one tank will not take you round both. Turtles, clownfish and macro life are common, and whale sharks are seen a few times a year. The northern tip has filter-feeding corals and sponges on boulders and gets deep enough to be used by technical divers.
