Tower Rock

   
       
    The highlight of the trip, north of the Mergui Archipelago, Tower Rock is a series of submerged granite boulders that are home to hundreds of Devil (Mobula) Rays that form huge schools. Perch yourself on top of one of the boulders and wait for a School of 30 plus individuals to gracefully swim over your head giving you a dive experience. You will never forget ! Early morning and late afternoon dives are the best times to see the rays in large numbers however they are present all day.If for some strange reason you get bored of the Devil Rays, there are lots of good macro subjects like Nudibranchs and Shrimps to keep you amused, plus numerous swim-through's between the boulders that form the site.    
       
       
    Black Rock    
       
    An amazing dive site, Black Rock is located in the open sea, miles from any other island. Its remote proximity attracts many pelagic fish from the deep water surrounding the small island. Regular sightings of Whalesharks and large Manta Rays, Narrow-Barred Spanish Mackerel patrolling the ocean, plus schooling Big-Eye Trevally. Also numerous Nudibranchs, Flasher Wrasse, Lined Dartfish, and Harlequin Shrimps that feed on red Sea Stars, to name just the highlights.
