I went diving at this island earlier this year. At first, I was hesitant to go in because the water was murky. But then I thought again and decided to go ahead and post about it, just in case it gives people another option for their holiday outings.

Langkawi Island is a bird's nest concession island. If you take a boat from Lampaya Pier, you will pass this island. However, we do not know that there are beautiful diving spots and abundant fish populations here.

The history is like this, if I hadn't gone diving here, I wouldn't have known.

Rangkajiew Island is a medium-sized island located in Mueang District. It is a historically significant island as King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) visited the island three times to observe the collection of bird's nests. His royal initials, จปร., are inscribed on the cave wall on the southern side of the island, serving as evidence to this day. Rangkajiew Island boasts beautiful beaches and a well-preserved fringing reef on the western side. The other sides are rocky with scattered coral formations. The total area of the coral reef is 0.025 square kilometers.

Departing from Bangkok at 4 pm, we arrived at Haad Sai Ree beach the next morning. We had arranged to board the boat there, having contacted the owner in Bangkok beforehand. We requested to dive only at this location, as we would be taking a boat to Koh Tao in the afternoon to continue diving there. Having heard of this place for some time, we wanted to focus solely on it. Ideally, if we had contacted the park, they would have taken us to Koh Ngam as well, but we decided to prioritize Racha Yai for now.

We took a photo with the sunrise at Hat Sai Ree beach. We arrived early in the morning and slept in the van the whole way.

After lunch, we gathered strength for diving at Koh Rawi while waiting for our appointment time. We then paid our respects to Prince Chumporn at Sai Ree Beach before waiting for our appointment.

After leaving Haad Sai Ree, we took a boat ride for about half an hour. Even though we chartered a boat, the park also has black flag boats available for transportation.

From the boat, the water appears crystal clear. Smaller boats can anchor on the beach if the water level is suitable, as there is a dense coral reef during that time.

Without further ado, we put on our fins and plunged into the water. The underwater views were breathtaking, and we were glad we had decided to capture them before exploring the surface.

This event is entertaining. The water is murky, but there are a lot of fish.

This is not very deep, so it doesn't look very cloudy.

At a depth of approximately 3-4 meters, the abundance of sea anemones becomes evident.

This location boasts an abundance of sea anemones, forming dense clusters. The fish population is equally impressive, making it a haven for marine life.

This appears to be the edge of the island. If I go deeper, I will be able to capture a school of yellowtail scad. I will continue tomorrow after work. If it is playable, I will post it.

The water level was not very deep, but there were beautiful fish. However, the water was a bit cloudy when I went, so the photos didn't turn out well.

Sea anemones are abundant in each area, and there are many schools of fish.

Diving was so tiring, but the scenery was breathtaking.

Gradually explore around the dive site.

Gradually swim deeper and deeper.

A massive table coral.

Wow, I was surprised. After passing the coral reef, I encountered this school of fish.

The water level has started to rise, revealing small coral reefs that are still beautiful. I took a picture of them.

Spotted these two swimming on the sand surface, so I snapped a quick photo.

Following, following, but the fish don't swim away quickly. It seems like they are swimming to be photographed.

The water appears clear because it is located in a shallow area.

Exhausted from swimming in the water, I'm getting ready to head back to Koh Tao.
