The Samaesan Hole is probably your best bet if you would like to dive with trimix. She is right into the middle of the busy shipping lane between Ko Chuang and Ko Samae San and reaches depths of ninety meters. Only go here with the proper training as there is nothing to see above sixty meters. Bring multiple lights, dive computers and the proper equipment. It is considered a dive site with one of the strongest currents in the Gulf but on top of that is named an explosive dump ground on marine charts because of all the unexploded bombs. It is right into the middle of the shipping lane where huge oil tankers can ruin your day as they go as deep as your last three safety stops. The site is used as a military waste and ammunition dump site, so you might find some nice things.
