Deep Six (Similan Island 7)

Overview

Large rock formations, deep diving, and swim-throughs. Deep Six is one of the famous dive sites in the Similan Islands, located at the northern tip of Island 7. It is notable for its large granite rock formations that have created underwater landscapes such as straits, tunnels, arches, and swimming channels. Divers can swim between the large rocks, observing soft corals, sea whips, and sea bream clinging to the rock walls. This spot can have relatively strong currents, especially at the tip of the rock formation, and there are rapid changes in depth, making it suitable for experienced divers who can control their buoyancy well.
