There is No real Scuba Diving in Koh Samui, as all the scuba diving activities take place around Koh Tao & Koh Nangyuan plus at the 2 scuba diving highlights Sail Rock & Chumpon Pinnacle.
The reason why diving Koh Samui is limited in terms of dive sites options is simply because the shallow water and sandy bottom combine to make the visibility quite low. The marine life is not as abundant as on dive sites around Koh Tao or Koh Nag Yuan.
