Hin Bida
*Rabais pour cours complet si réserver en ligne
Ce petit site pourrait bien être un point clef de la reproduction de certaines espèces. On y rencontre assez souvent des juvéniles requins leopards pendant cette période chaude en fin de saison. Ce récif possède une abondante faune et flore.
Hin Bida, roché en forme de pied de canard
Hin Bida PhiPhi est un récif situé entre les îles Koh Bida et Koh Lanta. Ce récif est bien connu comme étant le meilleur pour rencontrer des requins léopard. Il est souvent possible d’en observer cinq ou six par plongée, dans ce petit récif aperçu comme « leur maison ». Normalement, ces splendides créatures sont trouvées reposantes sur de petits bancs de sable en eaux peu profonde.
Des reliefs poissonneux!
Mais si ces requins ne sont pas présents, ne désespérez pas, car s’aventurer autour des franges de ce récif rend normalement leur observation possible. Hin Bida est un récif en forme de « patte de canard » axant la plongée vers le sud-ouest avec une profondeur maximale d’environ 24m. Facilement repérable, les pics supérieurs brisent la surface lorsque la marée est au plus bas. Ce haut plateau est surnommé la nurserie. On y aperçoit vers Février / Mars des juvéniles requins léopards s’entrainant à la nage.
Remarquable petit récif!
Ce récif possède une abondante faune et flore. Les murènes zèbres sont assez communes sur ce site (si vous êtes assez doués pour les repérer). Les serpents-de-mer à bandes sont aussi souvent aperçu ici, plus grandes que celles que nous voyons sur d’autres sites. De nombreuses raies de récif ont été découvertes, cachées sous des roches.
Jetez un œil dans le bleu, requins à pointes noir ou raies aigles pourraient rapidement faire une apparition sur le récif. Assez souvent en période d’accouplement, quelques seiches se battent pour s’acquérir une femelle puis se fondre dans le décor. En regardant d’un peu plus près, vous y découvrirez de nombreux spécimens, plus petits, tels que les rascasses volantes, poissons pierres et autres espèces moins commune les poissons fantômes ou limaces de mer. Ce récif est certainement un favori des photographes!

3 juillet 2021Big Thanks to Blue Planet for a great day 3/3. And specially thanks to Brice who was a very professional and nice diveinstructor. He gave me a very good refresh for my OW cert because its been a while sins my last dive. After that we did two really good dives at Koh Bida.

I just did my open water diving licence there and the guys from the Diving Center are doing a very professional job (they are not overwhelmingly friendly or funny, I... read more felt like they keep a professionelle distance)
, everything went on really fluent, the boat trip to the spots was enjoyable (thanks to the anti sea-sickness pills from the Diving Center), the food was delicious, the thai staff was extremely friendly, and the dives have been nice! I did the course because I am/was really afraid of deep water, the sea, swimming... I always felt like water is just not my element. With all the knowledge I got and my very calm and sophisticated teacher (thanks Raf) I managed to go down and keep breathing. From Dive to dive my fear shrunk and I could enjoy my experience. The only thing what I was missing was a long wetsuit as I started freezing at the end of every dive.Stay08598734055
9 février 2023Blue Planet was very responsive on WhatsApp to organise the dives, and the package quoted for 2 days diving was very reasonable. They pick up and drop off from your... read more hotel. The catamaran is large, clean and well appointed. Lots of room to chill between dives. Breakfast, lunch and snacks provided on board were really good quality. The quality of the diving gear is fine. There were two of us and we did 3 dives each for 2 days. Groups are small, with no more than 4 individuals per guide. Our guides, Brice and Mark were both excellent, both knowledgeable and attentive and really made our trip special. All the staff and the owner are very pleasant and helpful.
Overall, am very impressed with Blue Planet Divers, would thoroughly recommend. Thank you to Blue Planet!pap5225
1 janvier 2023Fantastic day diving and snorkelling with Blue Planet Divers. Our sons (11 and 14) tried a Discover Diving day and my wife and I snorkelled. Etienne looked after the boys... read more and was the perfect blend of friendly and professional. We felt safe and well looked after from the minute we were picked up at our hotel and throughout the whole day. We were lucky enough to see loads of fish and reef tip sharks. Matt took some fantastic photos that you are under no obligation to buy but you will definitely want to as they are far better than anything you can take yourself. Would definitely recommend to others and already have.

25 décembre 2022This shop is amazing, they are very professional, super friendly and organized, the boat is quite nice and the food on the boat is delicious.
We did 4 dives... read more and an open water course, plus we stayed at their hotel (the dive house) which was extremely comfortable and convenient, you get out of the boat and you're 10 meters away from your room.
Laurens was a great instructor and guide, we saw a lot of beautiful ocean life and had a pretty epic experience. The staff on the boat is also quite professional and friendly, they run a tight operation and make you feel safe.
There is also a professional photographer, Matt, who does amazing work.
Highly recommended!902fernandoo

Instructor Lawrence is a top professional and knows everything, he made us feel calm and secure which... read more is the most important thing when you go diving. So if you find yourself debating wether to dive or not my advice is do not hesitate, it is one of the best things I’ve ever done!

8 décembre 2019... read more Blue Planet Divers is the place to go for diving in Thailand, they're based in Koh Lanta and dive close to Koh Phi Phi and other dive sites. I did my PADI OPEN WATER and Deep Diver Adventure course with an extra 10 dive package. The instructors were very knowledgeable, kind, patient and they made sure I was comfortable and confident enough before going to the open water of the Andaman Sea. This was definitely a highlight of my trip and also my life!! The crew and everyone working with Blue Planet Divers are professionals and I can't wait to go back!! 😁👌👌
