As you approach the Similan islands from out of a live-aboard you will most likely start at a dive site off Ko Huyong island. This island has the longest white sandy beaches which have made it famous for turtles to lay their eggs. Rocky Points is a shallow granite ridge separated from the island by a narrow sandy alley. A mooring buoy is attached at the western side of the reef which make it easy to go down. It is full of rock formations, crevices and cracks where creatures such as crab, shrimp and smaller fish are literally stuffed on each other. In the deeper sections of the reef you can see zebra sharks, jacks and stingrays. Most fish can be found in the shallower sections of the ridge where sunlight has given them some of the brightest and best colours.
