Why dive here
With 173+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, eagle rays, giant moray eels, whale sharks and clownfish - Ko Bon North Point offers some of Similan Islands's richest diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, June.
Ko Bon North Point offers a good drift dive along a sloping reef. We often find leopard sharks resting on the sand flats here, especially in the early mornings, along with schools of snappers and fusiliers. Currents can pick up, so it's best for experienced divers comfortable with some movement. Visibility is generally excellent, making it easy to spot smaller critters tucked into the coral.
