Lying around 84 km northwest of Phuket, the Similan Islands are one of the best-known archipelagos in the Andaman Sea. This small chain of islands regularly appears on lists of the world's most rewarding places to dive and snorkel.
Most of the magic is below the surface: glass-clear turquoise water, colourful coral, shoals of tropical fish and, with a bit of luck, sea turtles. Above the waterline you'll find powder-white beaches and coves framed by enormous granite boulders.
