Cosa tratta questo video

Ann-Elin and Sam spend a week snorkeling and diving at Koh Rok in the Andaman Sea before sailing north toward Chalong Bay, Phuket.0:10 En route they stop at Maya Bay on Koh Phi Phi Leh — the beach from the film "The Beach" — and find it overrun with tourist boats before 8 a.m., the anchorage churned by constant ferry wake.15:16 They rate it not worth the stop and leave quickly.21:02 A squall during the passage pushes boat speed to 9 knots and forces a reef; current adds roughly 2 knots of boost on favorable legs and 2 knots of headwind resistance on the final tack into Maya Bay.7:10 A dive at Mushroom Reef on the small Phi Phi island turns up degraded coral.12:23 The better find is Shark Point, a shallow reef in open water between Koh Phi Phi and Phuket, where purple soft corals draw a "10 out of 10" rating from Ann-Elin.26:39 The final destination is Chalong Bay (anchored at Porto de Pura) to hydro-test two steel dive tanks acquired from a contact named James and four aluminum tanks coming due, plus regulator and BCD servicing before continuing to more dive sites.20:52
