Barakuda Dive Centre

Similan Islands, Thailand

Barakuda Dive Centre operates right from the Similan Islands, which is a big plus. You’re already there, no longboat ride each morning from the mainland. They run smaller groups, which we appreciate, especially on the more popular sites like Elephant Head Rock where it can get busy. If you’re looking to maximise your bottom time and avoid the day-trip crowds, staying on the island and diving with Barakuda makes a lot of sense. They’re a solid pick for divers who want convenience and a more relaxed pace.
