Three Trees
★★★★☆
(3,048)
This point is located northeast of the 9th island in the Similan Islands. It is named after the three large trees that are used to mark the entry, from a shallow depth of about 5 meters to a reef slope of about 18 meters, beyond which there is a pure white sandy area dotted with isolated roots. Offshore, there are beautiful rocky areas with schools of soft corals, where you can see large fish. Because the tide splits on the island, the tide is clear and you can enjoy drift dives when the tide is strong.
This is a multi-disciplinary dive site where you can see a wide variety of life, from schools of fusiliers, spadefish and barracudas to sandy creatures such as chinangoes, jawfish and symbiotic goby, to shallow coral reef turtles, butterfly fish and spoonbills. In the area with good tide, you may see super big fish such as manta rays.
