StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

Hide Away Bay, tucked into the Similan Islands, often surprises with its calm conditions. It's a gentle drift over sloping reefs, good for newer divers getting comfortable with currents. Look for garden eels poking from the sand flats and batfish hanging around the coral bommies. We find it's a solid choice for a second dive of the day.
