Similan Islands 4 & 5

Monday

Crystal-clear lagoons, easy reefs, and the postcard Similan vibe

Every Monday

This trip is the pure “holiday in the Andaman” experience — calm bays, bright visibility, and those iconic granite shapes against white sand. Islands #4 and #5 are perfect when you want maximum beauty with minimum stress: shallow coral gardens, gentle reef slopes, and loads of colorful reef fish right where you want them — close, clear, and easy to enjoy.

What makes #4 and #5 special is how balanced the day feels. You get genuinely beautiful underwater time, but also proper surface time that doesn’t feel rushed — crystal water for snorkeling, scenic beaches, and the kind of calm setting where everyone comes back smiling. It’s the best choice if you want a day that feels effortless, photogenic, and packed with that tropical “wow” from start to finish — without needing it to be deep or demanding to be amazing.

Tour Location

Similan Islands #4 & #5 – Similan National Park

Similan Islands #4 and #5 are part of Mu Ko Similan National Park, one of Thailand’s most famous protected marine areas. These islands are known for their bright, shallow reefs, calm bays, and that classic Similan scenery: turquoise water, white sand, and smooth granite rocks along the shoreline.

Underwater, the area is a beautiful mix of coral gardens and rocky reef formations. It’s a great place to enjoy relaxed dives and snorkeling, with colorful reef fish everywhere and plenty to look at even in the shallows. On many days you may spot turtles cruising through the reef, along with schools of fish moving over the coral and rocks.

Because this is a National Park, the focus is on keeping the islands pristine. Visitors are asked to respect the reef, keep a safe distance from marine life, and follow ranger instructions during beach time and water activities. The result is exactly what you want from a Similan day: clear water, healthy reef scenery, and an easy, laid-back island atmosphere that feels like a real escape.

Booking Requirements

  • For booking a trip, we require: first name, family name, nationality, date of birth, passport number & hotel name.
  • For divers we also need: certification level, number of logged dives, date of last dive, and proof of certification.
  • All visitors must carry a copy or photo of their passport during the trip.

Similan National Park Rules

  • Season: The Similan Islands are closed every year from 16 May to 14 October and open from 15 October to 15 May.
  • No drones: Drone flights are strictly prohibited.
  • No single-use plastics: Many Thai National Parks prohibit single-use plastic items (and foam containers). Please avoid bringing disposable plastic/foam packaging into the park.
  • Reef-safe sunscreen only: Thai National Parks have announced bans on certain chemical sunscreens that are harmful to coral. Please use reef-safe sunscreen or protective clothing instead.
  • Respect wildlife: Do not touch, chase, or disturb marine life. Never stand on coral or the seabed, and never take shells or coral as souvenirs.
  • Follow park staff & boat crew instructions: Rules can change depending on conservation measures and conditions. Always follow the guide briefing and any ranger instructions.

New Thailand Diving & Snorkeling Rules

Thailand introduced stricter nationwide standards for diving and snorkeling activities (effective 22 April 2025) to protect coral reefs and improve safety.
  • Supervision required: Every trip must be accompanied by a certified dive supervisor or assistant.
  • Life jackets for snorkeling near coral: Life vests must be provided and worn when snorkeling near coral reefs (unless the tourist holds a recognized freediving certificate).
  • Mandatory briefing: Guests must receive a briefing on laws, safety, and responsible marine practices before activities.
  • Group ratios: Limits apply to how many guests one supervisor can oversee (different limits for deep diving vs snorkeling/freediving, and for training sessions).
  • Camera rules: Underwater photography is restricted unless the diver is qualified (e.g., Advanced certification or 40 logged dives) and can show proof if requested.
  • Reef distance: Divers must stay at least 2 metres above coral heads, and fin control must be demonstrated before approaching coral areas.
To comply with these rules, reminder: we may limit snorkeling approach to reefs, and we may ask guests to leave cameras on board if requirements are not met. Divers are expected to control their buoyancy for their own safety and the safety of the guide, group and environment.
