Wreck of the Hardeep, Samaesan

Hardeep at a Glance

Depth: 12 - 28 m
Currents: Strong
Season: All
Tags:

 
The Hardeep was supposedly an Indonesian freighter, commandeered by the Japanese during WWII, and sunk by allied bombing around 1942. The ship sits on its side on the bottom, which is around 28 meters down. The structure is heavily encrusted with soft corals, sponges and sea whips.

The remains of the Hardeep lie about 400 meters off the northwest corner of Koh Chuang (see the Sattahip and Samaesan map). Currents here are generally very strong. Use a mooring line to make your way down to the wreck, or else you may never find it.
