The next two dives will be in shark cave, one of the most famous dive sites in Mergui Archipelago, where there is an opportunity to see more than one shark inside the cave.

McLeod Island is perfect for a night dive.

Today would be the finest diving day of the trip. Start the day with two dives in Sea fan Forest Pinnacle. The site is covered with a forest of beautiful giant sea fans. In the afternoon, dive in Western Rocky, one of the best dive sites in Myanmar. One of the highlights is a cave diving at 20m depth that goes all the way through the island.
