The Chimney dive site is located near Ko Haa Nueng island (the most northern island of Ko Haa group). The site looks like a vertical slingshot handle, with a thickness of 3-4m/9-13ft. It begins at a depth of 16m/52ft, and opens up into an upright chimney structure that can be ascended and exited via two caves at about 5m/16ft depth. At the bottom of the site, at about 20-22m/65-72ft, there is a dense garden of white and lilac soft corals occupied by numerous colorful reef fish. The site is a paradise for macro photographers.
