The Similans are nine islands off Phang Nga province, seventy kilometres north-west of Phuket. This national marine park is recognised as one of the best diving and snorkelling sites in South-East Asia.
Koh Miang, island number four, opens the day: a white sand beach edged with granite, a short walk to the viewpoint, and a first snorkel over the coral tables close to shore. Lunch in the park facilities, then Koh Ba Ngu and its spectacular granite formations, where you come across giant clams, humphead parrotfish and sometimes stingrays resting on the sand.
Two options are available to reach the Similans: the catamaran, recommended for more comfort and stability on the crossing, or the speed boat for a livelier ride. You can pick your format when you book.
Good to know: a child rate applies from 4 to 11 on both Speed Catamaran and speed boat, at 68 € instead of 84 €, and it is free under 4. It is applied when your request is confirmed.
Please note: the return transfer from your hotel is included. Additional charges may however apply depending on your pick-up location; any such amount will be confirmed according to the address of your accommodation.
