Elephant Head Rock

Located in the Maritime Zone between islands 7 and 8 in the Similan Islands, this reef dive site is notable for its unique position. Named for the rock formation that resembles an elephant's head, this site features vast layers of granite interspersed with numerous channels and swim-throughs, creating a mystical landscape. The tide conditions are favorable, and early mornings often reveal feeding scenes involving crabs, sharks, and large fish. In the shallower waters, oversized trevally frequently target smaller fish. This is one of the most dynamic dive sites in the Similan Islands.
