[Similan Islands] [Bon Island] [Tahcai Island] [Richelieu Rock]
Deep Six north of Island 7 is among the Similan Islands' typical sites and famous for topography. Huge boulders overlap from 30m, creating dramatic swimthroughs and overhangs. As it's at the northern tip of a long island stretching south to north,currents are extremely good with a chance of spotting bigger species. As well as groups of giant trevally and bluefin trevally attacking shoals of snapper, there is plenty of macrolife between the rocks and on the sand. It's a dynamic point with regular sightings of whale sharks and manta rays.
