If you are not a certified diver, take a scenic boat ride between the dive sites and take in the beauty of the islands from the water. Jump from the boat to the waters and snorkel in the sea to explore the shallow reefs and encounter an abundance of marine life. After a long day, relax on the beautiful sandy beaches of the Similan Islands and enjoy the idyllic tropical scenery.
