Koh Tachai, one of Thailand’s most famous dive sites, is home to incredible marine life. Among the highlights, schools of Chevron Barracudas create a mesmerizing underwater spectacle. These sleek predators often gather in large, coordinated groups, moving in perfect harmony. The video above shows the thrill of diving through a swirling school, giving a real sense of their scale and energy.

At Koh Tachai, strong currents bring nutrient-rich waters, which attract these impressive fish. As a result, divers can observe hundreds of barracudas gliding effortlessly above the reef.
