[Similan Islands] [Bon Island] [Tahcai Island] [Richelieu Rock]
Christmas Point lies west of Island 9 with good currents. Between the overlapping rocks are swimthroughs, and the site's dynamic topography is its selling point. Its name comes from Christmas tree worms on the submerged rocky reefs, a bit further away from the main rock. Deeper down are guitar fish, black tip reef sharks and white tip reef sharks that are over 3 metres.Because of its location at the corner Island 9, there can be a complicated mix of currents depending on timing.

When swimming around the outer areas,check offshore areas regularly so as not to miss silvertips and yellow guitarfish!
