Barracuda Point (Similan Island 5)

Overview

Rocky reefs, coral reefs, and drift diving. Barracuda Point is a dive site featuring granite rock formations, coral reefs, and sandy areas. The various rock formations create channels and hiding places for marine animals. When the current is suitable, drift dives are possible at this spot. Divers can let themselves be carried by the current while exploring the coral reef and observing schools of fish around the rock formations. The name Barracuda Point doesn't mean you'll always see barracudas, but there's a chance to encounter schooling fish and large predators, especially when the current flows past the rock formations.
