    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Andaman Scuba, found in the Similan Islands, offers a decent enough dive, particularly if you’re looking for a relaxed exploration. We’ve found the currents here are generally mild, making it a good spot for easing back into things or for newer divers getting their fins wet. You’ll drift past large formations of table and staghorn corals, with patches of seagrass where you might spot a few Indian Scad. It’s not the most dramatic reef in the Similans, but it’s a pleasant way to spend an hour underwater. We’d suggest it for a calm morning dive.
