Similan Raiders

Similan is known as the top 10 global diving sites, open only during the dry season.

Many years, we've been in the rainy season comes to Thailand, because the price comparison. Therefore, the only mountain too high, jingxing viability. Although not able to, so shit. We are the standard idler, cannot bear hardships, and overall more lazy luxury, red eye flights could not sit, would rather spend more money, never again to sit on. My daughter-in-law is white, like Hong Kong 1-2-night stay, so the following to go to Phuket part more luxury.

About Phuket

5 March, we ride through the Hong Kong Dragon Airlines to Phuket around 18: 30.

Expenses is 3380 taxes, including 2 nights lodging Adman Beach Suite (can only be 3 stars). Shanghai Airlines, Thai Airways flights are with red eye, so we are not elections easier, rather than wasting time in Hong Kong Airport knock melon seeds, online, shopping, hit. Dragonair have Haagen-Dazs, dining is a 5-star hotel Marriot, Yes, I personally think that not worse than Singapore Airlines.

Arrange pick-up to Phuket fee is 550 baht.

Orient Travel provided by www.thaiorientaltours.com pick-up, not cheap, but still should be arranged in advance, we do not return to the airport, take the white of the hearers said taxi just 450 baht, March 9 at the holiday inn and find car before leaving, human foibles, I as lobster, bargaining is 600 baht for a long time.

By the way: Phuket accommodation price/performance choice is the holiday inn.

This is probably the best we stayed in holiday inn, tripadvisor.com ranking 3rd. Amari Coral ranked 2nd, but the level is not as good as we went to the 5 years ago. Really mix master living in Phuket Town, low hand or patoon beach.

Similan Raiders

This, because the band had a 6-month pregnant friends, so can't fully implemented:

First day: Phuket Airport to Khao Lak. You must first go to http://www.khaolaktaxi.com/reservation taxi, otherwise ready to 1700-3000 baht.

Special considerations:

1.

Call to make an appointment for the Bank of China, more change some Thai baht exchange rates far higher than Phuket.

2. There are no hot water bath, occasionally, cuts off the power.

3. try not to dwell on the island over the weekend

4. where sunscreen

5. do not bring any snorkeling equipment.

6. bring some snacks to eat, Thailand not questioning.

Catering is not very good, don't expect too much.

7. bring domestic mosquitoes do not bite, sprinkle over each own corner, I miss Thailand, little fingers, actually did not escape the mosquito attacks.

8. accommodation in tents do not tile sleeping bags, the evening before going to sleep in the sleeping mat underneath.

Otherwise a bag of sand, gold was not a House.

9. the night with a flashlight, go to the seaside find crabs, hermit crabs.

But not so many crabs tyrannizing the Maldives.

10. Beware of snakes.

Dinner flies a lot. The original version of the Maldives, is the natural biological.

11. Small island 4 beach (500 m away from the Centre of walking through the jungle of mosquitoes) very nice, 5-30 m of water is very clear, but the second day, wind, waves big around can only see 10 meters of the fish.

White seen 1 meter long, big fish, sharks, and suspected she turned and fled. I saw 50 centimeters long, sword fish, trichiurus?

12. the belt can dive card camera, you can shoot a shoal.

13. the superficial as far as possible to the deep water tour, don't go to the shore, are coral scratches.

14.8 Island although there are tents, but most of us live 4 Islands.

Ask agent recommended for Seaview cabin.

15. There is no need to see the sunset, and Phuket patoon beach Sunset more or less large, mountain climbing, come back late very black, mosquito bite, not worth it.

16. the repeatedly asked Island Thailand Guide to good drinking water reserve, or confidently on restaurant dude said he was certain arrangements for the tourist, the company said 6000 baht full, do not have to spend money to buy a drink of water.

17. return boat soon, be careful of seasickness

18. English preferably with a six-level of Alice, otherwise it would be more difficult.

If you are willing to pay us, we undertake to do can be a tour guide with you.

The following is my personal on the islands of water visibility

The great barrier reef = Maldives = > PP Similan Island = Philippines balicasag > > Philippine Bali Island Malaysia Sabah the Mint > > > centipede teams Chau Phuket Island > > > gulangyu Yalong Qingdao

Comparison of underwater creatures

The great barrier reef = Maldives = > > PP Similan Island Bali > > Philippines Philippines balicasag Island Malaysia Sabah the Mint > > > centipede teams Chau Phuket Island > > > gulangyu Yalong Qingdao

Integrated price ratio (including time, money, landscape)

>

PP barrier reef Similan Island = > = Maldives > > Philippine Bali balicasag > > Philippine Mint Phuket Island Malaysia Sabah gulangyu > > > > centipede teams Chau Island Qingdao > Yalong Bay

Miscellaneous:

1. white like Thailand Krabi and Viet Nam Halong Bay, because they do not belong to the underwater scenery, not included in the above comparison.

2. the Bali for surfing, foreigners are to be seen, but not for us, so the ranking later, Bali's kayak than we in the Australian kayaking for fun.

There snorkeling, we see the harbour of snakes, sea cucumber. Strange water is not very clear, possibly waves, turn up the sand, but it is said that more clear lombok.

3. domestic tourism, it is recommended to everyone or to see the landscape, the landscape is "a universe," and we are not also copying avata Zhangjiajie? "can only be considered small harbour in the world" (a, b, d).

4.

PP island development is better, lonely planet's comment references: among the Islands in the world. King Island is the rich holiday. Don't go to Pattaya, unless you are a single wealthy men.

5. the Philippines of el nido and the Sandakan Malaysia is diving sites, but the departure of cumbersome, it is better to go to the Maldives, it is not listed.

6. the Yalong Bay was ranking can rely on before, but now prices soaring, says Yalong Bay seascape real beauty, must not take Beijing bus to Embassy of the Republic.
