Richelieu Rock
★★★★★
(18,077)
Richelieu Rock is one of the most popular dive sites in Surin Islands National Park. It is a limestone reef that rises almost vertically from a depth of 35 meters, and appears only at low tide, about 1 meter above the surface.
You will see bigeye trevally, barracudas, and an abundance of blue-and-white reef sharks. You will also see schools of fox snappers and whale sharks.
