One of the most famous dive sites of Koh Bon is Ko Bon Pinnacle, a huge pinnacle that reaches depths deeper than forty meters. It is diving for experienced and trained divers only as the pinnacle starts at eighteen meters deep and sits in an area that often encounters strong currents. Don't only focus at macroscopic life living on the pinnacle as pelagic such as tuna, jacks and barracuda often cruise by in large groups out in the blue.

From the north side of the pinnacle you can swim towards the reef at thirty meters deep. This western wall is quite steep and covered in the best examples of green and yellow anemones. There is a small cavern with groups of fish swarming around its entrance.
