Day trips to the Similan Islands, Surin Islands and Richelieu Rock offer plenty of choice for divers of all levels. With a choice of boats and dive sites throughout the week, we can help you find the trip that suits you best. Small groups of up to four divers per guide make for a comfortable and well-organised day of diving from Khao Lak.
For divers looking for more flexibility, we offer overnight trips without committing to a full liveaboard. Choose a 2 Day / 1 Night, 3 Day / 2 Night, or stay longer if you wish, giving you more time to dive the Similan Islands.
A must-visit for any diver, Richelieu Rock is widely regarded as one of the best dive sites in Thailand and the Andaman Sea. Located in the Surin Islands, just north of the Similans, this world-renowned dive site is a mecca for marine enthusiasts. Its iconic horseshoe-shaped reef is a vibrant playground for a stunning array of marine life, including schools of barracuda, jacks, and the occasional whale shark, making it a bucket-list destination for divers. The variety of macro life, including seahorses, ghost pipefish, and harlequin shrimp, adds to its allure, ensuring an unforgettable diving experience.
