Richelieu Rock

No reviews yetThailand, Andaman Sea, Koh Surin

Locals call it "Plo Nam" Rumor has it: discovered by Jaque Cousteu. The best dive site in Thailand, but the viz is not excellent (Especially at large plankton blooms) (generally around 10m). Sealife is exceptional, large fish shoals Barracuda, Snapper, Trevally, also invertebrates... Richelieu Rock has everything- Micro and macro. Porcelain crabs, Tiger Tail Sea Horses, Pipefish, Nudis, Harlequin Shrimp.... very little predator sharks You can expect to see whale sharks (from february to may) Whaleshark and Mantas both frequent the area. Best times are beginning and end of dive season when plankton blooms are highest. The rock is located southeast of Surin Islands. 20 nm W of Kuraburi, Phang Nga

Bon Soong Wreck

No reviews yetThailand, Andaman Sea, Koh Surin

Incredible concentration OF fish life on this old tin-dredger. WIth very few places in the area for fish to congregate, the numbers of fish here is incredible. Home to the Hypselodoris zebrina, a rare Nudibrnach endmeic to this site only. Schools of Lionfish, Schools of Porcupine Puffers and schools of squid mark some of the less common fish. Juvenile Barracuda, Fusiliers and plenty more. Ghost Pipefish, Stonefish and nudibranchs all litter this site. The Wreck sank in 1985 and is of no significant historical importance. As a wreck - very little interest, rather a brilliant dive site Bon Soong Wreck is also known as Banf Sak Wreck.
