    Two Bryde Whales spotted in Koh Tao

    Bryde Whale sighting in the Gulf of Thailand. Alvaro diving where the first ever to spot bryde whales around the waters of Koh Tao. In January 2010 the first two bryde whales have been spotted half way between Chumphon Pinnacle and Koh Nan Yuan island. The captain of the Alvaro dive boat reacted fast and turned the boat around quickly. The two whales didn't seem to mind the company of snorkelers around them and stayed a while to feed their curiosity and do some human watching... Bryde Whale sighting in the Gulf of Thailand.

    Just last week we saw a fantastically large whale shark in Chumphon pinnacle! Made the whole trip to Thailand worth it for many of our divers. Whalesharks are regular visitors of the larger pinnacles around Koh Tao and make the island one of the few places in the world, where a scuba diver can get so close to the largest shark in the oceans.
