If somebody ask you “Where is the most beautiful underwater world in Thailand?”, don’t hesitate to tell him that “It’s Mu Ko Similan”. It is famous not only in Thailand, but also all over the world. Everybody comes to a decision that here is one of the ten most beautiful SCUBA diving areas in the world.

First time you visit here, the beautiful seawater, strange-looking from other places, will catch your eyes that many of you can’t be patient to jump into the water. As soon as you reach the shore walking on the beach to the bungalow on the delicate white sand, you will hear the beautiful song of wild birds over the forest. Bungalows are hidden under those big trees leading to the hill.

Walking into the forest, you may see a Nicobar pigeon eating sapodilla fruits. Next to the fresh water stream is the habitat of those Hairy Leg Mountain crabs. The sound of stepped falling leaves was heard when an Indian monitor passes by.

At the first contact underwater, the water is so clear beyond the range of vision, schools of fishes pass by, corals stick together as a mountain with a lot of animals living in. Some…many of them have never been known before. Next, in the deepwater area, soft corals and sea fans will surround you; barracudas swim over your head; under you, a ray and a Leopard shark lie in wait.
