There are a number of top tec dive sites with quirky names in the vicinity of Pattaya, Thailand.
- 1/4 Mile Mouthpiece Drop: This recently discovered dive site near Pattaya (75m) was given an unusual/quirky name after events that unfolded during its maiden dive. During its discovery the divers who discovered it were drag racing DPVs (hence the 1/4 mile) and whilst enjoying themselves managed to lose the mouth piece of the regulator (mouthpiece drop).
- Narcosis Colosseum: This recently discovered dive site near Pattaya (50m) was given it’s unusual/quirky name due to it’s steep sided round appearance that matches that of a colosseum combined with the fact that it is the perfect depth for training extended range…meaning some people may get a bit narced
- Thunder Bowl: A recently discovered technical dive site (65m) to the west of Koh Samaesan. This unusual dive site name comes from the bowl shape topography of the dive site. The thunder comes from the fact it is in the middle of a commercial shipping lane. If ships are passing overhead then this is when the thunder starts.
