Boarding a boat on the beach is very fresh, the only drawback is that Island 8 can not go up the cliff with a red flag. The water on the other islands is beautiful, and although there are not enough underwater corals, it is well worth the visit to Phuket

The Similan Islands were beautiful and not packed with tourists which was great. The water colour was stunning and had some great walks up to lookouts. Snorkelling was good and a nice buffet lunch. It is a long drive and long boat ride to get out there, especially from Patong but worth it.

It was really really good and if anyone is traveling near Phuket or Similan, I would definitely recommend it. I personally had a perfect day. However, the driving of the vehicle that picks up and drops off can be a little rough (of course, I didn't mind it) and it was a pity that the exact location of the pier was not mentioned (pier name: Fantastic Similan Travel). Also, if the group that I have to go with leaves late for the 5 o'clock vehicle ride home, you will have to wait a long time.
