Dive Similans Island
MV White Manta
The Similan Islands, located about 50 Kilometers West of Khao Lak, are composed of nine granite islands washed by a clear blue tropical ocean and blessed with some of the world’s finest beaches. Similan is a Yawi or Malay word, which means nine or a group of nine islands. In 1982, this 128 square kilometres area was declared a marine national park. Similan Islands is voted one of the top 10 diving sites in the world for good reasons. You have a chance to dive with leopard sharks, white tip and black tip reef sharks, batfish, moray eels, snappers, barracudas, triggerfish, surgeonfish and unicornfish.
Best Time to Dive
November through the month of April is the peak season with finest conditions. However the best time for whale sharks is month of February to May. Good month for diving and snorkeling is in the month of summer, where the water is clearer and too far to be affected by fresh water run-off.
Getting There and Around
Phuket International Airport is the nearest airport to Similan Islands. Many liveaboards to Similan Islands depart from Khao Lak and it is about an hour away from the airport. From Khao Lak city centre, it is another 15 minutes to Thap Lamu pier where most liveaboard depart. Many airlines fly to Phuket International Airport.
