Dive supply - Similan Islands
Dive supply operates right out of the Similan Islands, which means shorter boat rides to the 238 dive sites scattered around the national park. They focus purely on day trips and liveaboards, making them a solid choice if you're already in the area and want to maximise your bottom time rather than commute from the mainland. It’s a practical option for divers prioritising location over extensive amenities.
