Diving Similan Island Phang Nga Thailand
Liveaboard Similan Island National Park Thailand
|
|
The Similans are considered among the best dive sites in Southeast Asia,
comparable to the best of the Maldives and the Red Sea.
So spectacular are the
coral reefs, massive boulders, profuse sealife, and powdery beaches that Skin
Diver magazine ranks Similan as one of the world's top 10 dive destinations.
The Similans were declared a national park in the mid-1980s to protect them
against dyna mite fishing and indiscriminate moorings that were quickly
destroying the delicate reefs. The environmental damage is now under control and
some say that the Similans are actually improving from the conditions of the
previous decade. |

The term "Similan" is derived from sembilan, which means "nine" in the Malay language. The Thais call the islands Ko Kao or "Nine Islands" in reference to the nine principal islands.
