Diving Losin, Pattani, Thailand - August 2024

I’m a bit embarrassed at actually publishing this video. It’s not very interesting, but I’m keeping up with a long tradition. Losin has been one of my favorite dive sites since I first visited in 2012. I like it because it’s a huge site with lots of beautiful soft and hard corals as well as an always interesting array of other sea life.
Sadly, warming water has had a significant effect on Losin. Much of the hard coral is “bleached” (the algae have fled the scene) and many of the creatures that were once common seem to be missing in action. No turtles, no jellyfish, no massive schools of Fusiliers or glass fish, a dearth of Baracuda and no whale sharks or eagle rays.
Still, it’s a beautiful place, worth a look. I hope it recovers.
