Beautifully located in Tanote Bay

Buddha View Dive Centre is nestled beneath the palm trees on the shore of Tanote Bay. Situated on the East side of the island, Tanote Bay is a beloved spot for those familiar with Koh Tao.

 

The bay is surrounded by lush, verdant hills, creating a serene and secluded atmosphere that beckons travelers seeking a peaceful escape. Tanote Bay is a haven for snorkelers and divers alike, boasting vibrant coral reefs teeming with an array of marine life, from playful clownfish to graceful rays.

 

Above the waterline, coconut palms sway gently in the sea breeze, providing a shady retreat for those seeking respite from the tropical sun. The perfect home away from home, this versatile beach is lively enough to keep you entertained all day but also offers a tranquil and relaxed setting to wind down in the evenings. Located roughly a 10 minute drive from the ferry pier, this is an ideal location for a stay on Koh Tao.
