Fan Forest Pinnacle in the Mergui Archipelago goes from 5m/16ft below the water’s surface to a depth of more than 30m/98ft. The submerged pinnacle consists almost entirely of limestone and is encircled by big granite boulders. Massive colorful sea fans (some of which are over 3m/10ft in diameter) grow on its walls, which makes this place look much like an underwater mountain covered with a thriving forest. The site is great for photography.
