Similan Islands
Are you looking to explore the best-known islands of Phuket? If so, then you can start with one of the island groups in the Andaman Sea called Koh Similan. If you haven’t visited such a pleasant diving location, you may not have seen the wonders beneath the clear blue waters surrounding it.
You might wonder why the Similan Islands are so popular and one of the top attractions when in fact they are not as scenic as the limestone islands of Phang Nga Bay. You may find low-lying formations underneath the thick forest instead. But that is not the treasure that visitors are interested about.
The islands are home to different variety of animals, such as bats, birds, crab-eating monkeys, dusky leaf monkeys, and lizards. However, the most interesting sight in these islands are the boulders scattered at the southern and western shores.Of course, visitors can also bask at the white coral-sand beaches that are often deserted but splendidly picturesque. That is because there are more interesting treasures lying beneath the waves, the most spectacular coral growths in the world, which serve as an adventure playground for divers.
You might wonder upon visiting the Similan Islands because some boats may stop running altogether during low season months from May to October depending on the weather conditions. But you are welcome to contact La Vacanza if you are looking for reliable boat services for visitors to the Islands.
