    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Aquarium at Neil Island is a really nice spot for new divers to get comfortable. At a maximum depth of 11 metres, it’s shallow and usually pretty calm. We've seen a good variety of reef fish here, parrotfish grazing on the corals and often some clownfish peeking out from anemones. It's a gentle introduction to the Andaman underwater world, perfect for building confidence before tackling deeper, more current-swept sites.
