    Does anyone have any advise about accommodations on Island #4 or #8? We would like rent a tent out there and dive a few days. How about a live aboard boat? Any thoughts...
    Is there diving places actually on the Similan Islands or do I have to go through diving shops out of Khao Lak or Phuket?

    I would appreciate any info and impute you could provide!

    Cheer,
    J

    Hi. Im not an expert on this as we go to the Surin Islands & Richelieu Rock from Koh Phra Thong.

    Nevertheless we have used a few of the Khao Lak providers.
