Koh Tao Wreck (s)

[ayeshacantrell]

As a few of you are aware Koh Tao got its very own sizable recreational depth wreck late last year.

The MV Trident was decomissioned and made ready for an artificial reef.

(The new wreck hunter is arriving soon - dont worry !)

ACE Marine Images on Koh Tao filmed it going down - the footage is taken from on board too. Its great - take a look !

YouTube - The Trident Story - Koh Tao's first articial reef and wreck.

It looks like Koh Tao is on for another wreck too by the end of June. A 49m length, 17m high retired naval vessel !

Great video! Thanks for sharing, indeed another good reason to visit KT again.

Ayesha,

The naval vessel would be great indeed. Any idea where that would be sunk?

I believe its still being discussed but west of Koh Tao.

Either out from Hin Pee Wee / White Rock or on the way to Chumpnon Pinnacle.......this is the last I heard.... She's 17.5 m tall, 7m wide and 49m Long ....

Exciting stuff eh?

Very exiting and it is about time that the Thai Navy puts a wreck down near Koh Tao!

Thanks for the post!
