While diving in the Similans you can also encounter batfish, snapper, barracudas, surgeonfish, and unicornfish. Turtles, barracudas, and octopi often visit the shallow areas with canyons. The dive spots in the Similan Islands are diverse and interesting, even for experienced divers. Richelieu Rock has spectacular underwater scenery with colorful corals and schools of trevallies and snapper. Sometimes manta rays and whale sharks visit this dive spot.
