    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Nai Yang, Reef 2 is a gentle introduction to the Similans. We're talking a maximum depth of 12 meters, perfect for those new to diving or anyone wanting a relaxed second dive. The reef here slopes gradually, and you’ll often find groups of juvenile snapper schooling amongst the hard corals, along with the usual cast of butterflyfish and angelfish. It’s a comfortable site, good for working on buoyancy, and occasionally we’ve spotted a curious cuttlefish or two hanging around the sandy patches.
