Yes its that time again in phuket thailand. The similan islands will be opening again in October for another six months of great diving. Many similan liveaboard boats are already have many bookings for the Christmas and New year period. So if you are looking to go to the similans this year then its a good time to start thinking about it. The similan islands are not only the best islands in Thailand for diving but in the top 10 places in the world. So if you have already been to phuket scuba diving and are thinking of things to do in phuket then a 2 or 3 day similan liveaboard is the answer.
There are a good selection of boats that go to the similan islands on different length cruises. These range for an over night trip to a massive eight days which not only go to the similans but get you to the surin islands a a day diving richelieu rock too. Then on to the Burma banks and black rock before heading back to the similan islands and home.
The 3 or 4 day trips take to to the best spots in the similan islands and then again to the surin islands and still the day diving richelieu rock and then back again. These 3-4 day trips are by far the most popular as these days the boats going to the similan islands are very comfortable with air con and great chefs onboard to keep you well fed.
So this year when you are scuba diving in phuket and the islands around then dont leave it till the last minute to think about a few days in the similan islands diving some of the best islands in thailand and thus the world. With many people from the Red Sea already booking trips for this year in phuket thailand its looking like it will be a very popular place so better to start planning that trip before the best spots get filled.
