The
"King Cruiser"ferry used to go
between Phi-Phi Islands and Phuket. In 1997 the ferry struck Anemone reef near
Phi Phi and sank nearby. No lives were lost, but the wreck remains as a
new underwater attraction. Big schools of fish have already made their home here.
This is not a dive for beginners.
Especially on a full moon the currents can be strong and the visibility can be
limited. This wreck is an excellent training site for wreck-diving speciality
courses though. The
trip includes all transfers, lunch and a dive master to look after you. Weight-belts
and tanks are also included in the price.
