Re-Opening of the Similan Islands National Park Diving Season

Khao Lak Explorer invites divers from around the world to the annual re-opening season.

Every year the Similan Islands National Park in Thailand has opened its gates to their beautiful, scenic shorelines to the public to allow divers from around the world experience diving with unique sea creatures and viewing majestic sunsets. Since 2010, Khao Lak Explorer Dive Center has helped divers of all skill levels achieve unimaginable dreams and capture impressive pictures with their liveaboard diving packages and Similan tours during the national park’s diving season.

There are nine islands that make up the Similan Islands – KoHuyong, KoPayang, KoPayan, KoMiang, Ko Ha, KoPayu, KoHinPousar, Ko Similan, and KoBangu. Diving tourists around the world flock to the Similan Islands National Park every year for a chance to see a wide variety of marine life, including manta rays, leopard and white sharks, triggerfish, batfish,unicorn fish, dolphins, and unique coral reef formations. Additionally, when not diving, tourists can enjoy various and unique land inhabitants, such as the mangrove monitor lizard, while walking along the park’s many nature trails.
