Bida Nok Deep Site is a gentle introduction to the Similan experience. It’s a good spot if you’re still getting comfortable with your buoyancy or haven't dived in a while. We often see giant trevally cruise through the deeper sections, and there are always plenty of yellowback fusiliers weaving around the bommies. Keep an eye out for leopard sharks resting on the sandy bottom if you're lucky. It's a solid, easy dive, perfect for a relaxed afternoon.
