The southern Thailand diving pinnacle is bigger, at a diving depth of 12 metres to the top. It is a dome shape surrounded by large boulders. The Thailand diving sand bottom is at a scubadiving depth of around 30 to 45 metres, with the deepest area on the southern side. To the west you will find large boulders at the Thailand diving divesite, some of which have formed diving swim-throughs. In the east, you will find stacks of small rocks, most of which are covered by hard corals and sea whips. Colourful soft corals and sea fans dominate the northern area of the Marine National Park. The top of the Thailand diving pinnacle is a wide flat plain with bush and mountain coral. This huge first Thailand diving pinnacle links to the smaller second diving pinnacle with a Thailand diving sand patch at 24 metres.

From the southern pinnacle, it is about a 50 metre swim at 24 metres depth to the northern pinnacle. The top of the northern pinnacle lies at a depth of 18 metres. This smaller pinnacle comprises a wide range of rock clusters and is home to large sea fans and corals, which are similar to the ones found on the southern pinnacle.
