West of Eden
West of Eden is on the west side of Ko Payu, the counterpart of East of Eden. It combines a shallow fringing reef with healthy table corals and gorgonians and deeper granite boulders forming canyons whose walls are covered in soft corals and sea fans. Guides like it for critters: frogfish, ribbon eels, ornate ghost pipefish and giant morays with cleaner shrimps. Turtles and great barracuda are often seen on the safety stop.
depth: 5–35 m
