The Similan Islands are a protected national park in the Andaman Sea, known for their stunning underwater landscapes formed by giant granite boulders. These create dramatic swim-throughs and channels, and the white sandy bottoms are a great place to spot leopard sharks.
Features
Known for two distinct types of underwater scenery. The east side has gently sloping reefs, while the west side features immense granite boulder formations that create arches and swim-throughs. Leopard sharks are commonly found resting on the sand.
