The site is normally run from Similan liveaboards or Khao Lak dive boats, not as an independent drop.
Este es un sitio de las Similan de acceso solo en barco para buceadores seguros de sí mismos, que por lo general se realiza con un descenso libre sobre una estructura de granito sensible a la corriente, con la mayor parte del recorrido real entre los 15 m y más profundo.
Acerca de Elephant Head Rock
Elephant Head Rock es un pináculo de granito en mar abierto al sur de Similan Island 8, donde grandes bloques, canales profundos, arcos y pasos nadables crean una de las rutas más espectaculares de las islas Similan. El agua azul y clara y la vida activa en media agua son parte del atractivo, pero el sitio se siente exigente porque la corriente, el oleaje y la profundidad del recorrido pueden cambiar la inmersión rápidamente.
