About This Dive Spot
Deep Six is situated at the northern end of the 7th island in the Similan Islands, along the northern apex of the elongated island. The dive site features granite boulders that have been shaped by tidal currents, creating several step-like formations from the seafloor. Divers can expect clear visibility and may encounter schools of Damselfish and Yellowback Fusiliers around the point. In the early morning hours, whitetip sharks can often be spotted in the deeper areas of the site.
