The Destination
Embark on a mesmerizing underwater odyssey in the
Similan and Surin Islands, Thailand
Dive into the wonders of the Similan Islands, Thailand, this April 2024. Nestled in the enchanting "Land of Smiles", Thailand, this destination ranks among the Top Ten globally and is arguably the finest in South East Asia. The setting boasts breathtaking views of crystal-clear seas, radiant skies, lushly wooded islands, and nutrient rich waters that promises encounters with up to 500 species of reef fishes, and large pelagics.
Covering approximately 140 square km, the Similan Islands Marine National Park is renowned among scuba divers worldwide. Iconic dive sites like 'Elephant Head Rock,' 'West of Eden,' 'Boonsung Wreck,' 'Richelieu Rock,' and 'Christmas Point' abound with marine treasures—reef black tips, white tips, leopard sharks, unicorn fish, trevallies, triggerfish, barracudas, eels, and many more.
To make the most out of this destination, we have chosen to dive off a liveaboard (5D/4N) that covers the original nine islands in addition to Koh Bon and Koh Tachai, which remain unscathed by coral bleaching.
