It starts among the granite boulders and swim-throughs of the Similan Islands, then moves on to the open-water pinnacles of Koh Bon and Koh Tachai. Further north are the Surin Islands, with time ashore at a Moken village, and Richelieu Rock, a soft-coral pinnacle near the Myanmar border. There are up to four dives a day, including sunset and night dives, for up to 19 dives in total.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou start the day on a light breakfast, then drop through clear water onto boulders the size of houses, with swim-throughs opening into sandy channels. At Koh Bon you hang on the ridge and watch the blue for the outline of a manta. At Richelieu Rock you go slowly over purple soft coral, looking for harlequin shrimp and seahorses, while schools of trevally circle the pinnacle above you. Between dives, the islands are forest down to the waterline, with white sand at the edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrip Highlights \u0026amp; Key Regional Features\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGranite boulders, swim-throughs and reefs of the Similan Islands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKoh Bon, known for manta ray encounters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKoh Tachai's pinnacle and the reefs around it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRichelieu Rock, a soft-coral pinnacle where whale sharks, harlequin shrimp and seahorses are seen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHard-coral reefs of the remote Surin Islands, with a visit to a Moken village\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to 19 dives, including up to 4 sunset or night dives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLook for leopard sharks, cuttlefish, whip rays, barracuda and peacock mantis shrimp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Master Liveaboards","offers":[{"title":"Classic Quad","offer_id":68070813565295,"sku":null,"price":3333.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Double\/Twin","offer_id":68070813598063,"sku":null,"price":4441.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Classic Twin","offer_id":68070813630831,"sku":null,"price":4441.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0913\/1737\/1247\/files\/MasterLiveaboardsThai-002.jpg?v=1793959616","url":"https:\/\/divebookings.com\/products\/andaman-sea-similan-surin-islands-liveaboard","provider":"Dive Bookings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
