Similan Islands diving is very different from other areas i have dove. Boulders the size of houses stacked upon each other on some sites. Normal walls and reefs on others. On the sites with the huge boulders it seems the soft corals and other colorful species are between the boulders. While swimming through the passages between boulders color everywhere. On sites such as richelieu rock soft corals are everywhere. On a wreck we did i had eighteen lionfish feeding. So amazing the feeding frenzy i shot one hundred fifty pictures on that dive. Visibility ranges from One hundred feet to ten feet. Richelieu rock is very good for whalesharks but the day we did it i could barely see my fins visibility was so bad. Just got to go again as a whaleshark could have been ten feet away but no way to see it. It happens. I use a nikon d40x in an aquatica housing with the nikon 16-85mm lens. Ikelite AI strobe.
