North Point Dive Site — Thailand

About North Point

The northernmost dive site in the Similan archipelago, North Point on Island 9 (Koh Bangu) features dramatic granite boulder formations rising from the sandy bottom. Strong currents attract manta rays to the cleaning stations on the ridge, while leopard sharks rest in the sand between the rocks. The combination of macro life in the crevices and megafauna in the blue makes this a complete diving experience.
