Waterfall Bay, Similan

★★★★☆ (395)

Waterfall Bay, Similan Islands, is a shallow, sheltered bay, often chosen for calm conditions and easy diving. It features a sandy bottom interspersed with scattered coral bommies and rock formations. Ideal for relaxed dives, particularly for beginners or for night dives due to its protected nature.

Waterfall Bay’s sandy bottom and coral patches host diverse macro life: ghost pipefish, seahorses, cuttlefish, octopus, shrimp, and nudibranchs. Occasional reef fish.
