Richelieu Rock, Surin Islands, Thailand
Richelieu Rock is a world-famous dive site in the Andaman Sea about 200 kilometers northwest of Phuket, Thailand. The horseshoe-shaped reef is popular for its purple corals as well as diverse marine life, ranging from small fish to large pelagics like manta rays, barracudas, and groupers. Dubbed a "whale magnet" by locals, the spot is also known for its population of whale sharks. There is nothing as exhilarating as swimming in such a wonderland with whale sharks as company.
