Dive Shack

Similan Islands, Thailand

Dive Shack runs trips right out into the Similans, which is handy if you’re already staying on one of the islands. They’re a straightforward operation, good for divers who want to cut out the longboat journey from the mainland and maximise their time in the water. We’ve found their instructors have a solid grasp of the local sites, especially around Koh Bida Nai and Hin Muang. Expect practical, no-frills diving, focusing on getting you to the best spots when the conditions are good, often before the day boats arrive.
