Two Islands located two hours south of Ao Nang. On the smaller
one, Phi Phi Ley, you find Maya Bay where the movie The
Beach was shot. There are plenty of dive sites around
Phi Phi.
King Cruiser Wreck
An 85 meter long former car ferry that hit Anemone reef in
1997. Now an artificial reef and home to great schools of
barracuda and huge lionfish.
Shark Point
About 1 hour east of Phuket, this protected marine sanctuary
is famous for its bottom dwelling leopard sharks. Since they
are nocturnal feeders they are very approachable during the
day, which makes this a great place for u/w pictures and video
shots.
Anemone Reef
Located next to Shark Point. The famous reef that elevated
the King Cruiser below the water line. Anemone Reef is simply
a perfect nature jewel, covered with anemones and colorful
soft coral plus a never ending abundance of marine life.
