Exactly, it might have just been the timing. So your earlier statementI suppose compared to Komodo and Raja Ampat, I found it really easy relative to those 2 places. No reef hook or muck stick needed. I didn’t experience any up or downcurrents in the Similans. Maybe I was lucky. Granted, I only have 7 days of dive experience in the Similans which is probably a lot less than you but it is my personal experience. It might have just been timing.
will be totally correct sometimes, and incorrect other times. IIt also depends a lot on the divesites, Koh Tachai pinnacles for example can be really tricky, while some of the inner Similan sites or Koh Tachai reef will normally be easySimilan Islands diving is not that difficult
