Discover the best experiences this city has to offer
The Similan Islands, an archipelago of nine granite islands in the Andaman Sea, are a designated National Park renowned for their natural beauty. Unlike the limestone islands found elsewhere in Thailand, the Similans feature unique massive granite boulders that create dramatic landscapes both above and below the water. The islands are celebrated globally as a premier destination for diving and snorkeling, offering visibility that often exceeds 30 meters. Beyond the underwater wonders, the islands offer pristine white sand beaches that are soft as powder and free from commercial development. As a protected marine sanctuary, the ecosystem is vibrant and teeming with life, from nesting sea turtles to colorful reef fish. Because the park is only open for a specific season (usually October to May), nature has time to regenerate, ensuring that every visit feels like stepping into an untouched paradise.
