The Similan Islands and its Whale Sharks! A liveaboard trip in this area is one of the best scuba diving experiences you will find in Thailand. Its huge granite boulders with caverns and arches, lush greenery, and white sand beaches ring the nine islands, completing the view from above the water. The marine ecology in this area is unparalleled, with colorful schools of fish, coral reefs, and endangered species that welcome divers like the Whale Sharks or Manta Rays. Look out for such photogenic little critters as ghost pipefish, sea moths, frogfish, ribbon eels, and many different nudibranchs. Koh Tachai and Koh Bon, members of the Similan Island National Park, are visited en route to Richelieu Rock in the Surin Marine Park, and offer more Pelagics, Napoleon Wrasse, and night diving for Macro-Critters.
