Similan Øerne

Sigtbarheden ved disse øer er langt den bedste i Thailand og blandt de 10 bedste i verden. Tsunamien har ikke beskadiget rev, der dykkes på.

Efter tsunamien er sigtbarheden blevet bedre end nogen sinde

 

Koh, - betyder ø på thailandsk og udtales som var det stavet med ”G”: ”GOH” Similan

 

Similan Øerne er en perlerække af ægte naturskønhed. De ubeboede og uspolerede tropiske øer findes i Andaman Havet ud for Thailands vestkyst. Siden 1982, for mere end 20 år siden, blev et området på 128 km2 ved Similan Øerne, erklæret for beskyttet National Marine Park, overvåget at ministeriets opsynsmænd. Til sammen med disse er havforskere, fiskeribeskyttende personale og en håndfuld besøgende, de eneste der må tager ophold på disse rolige øers to campingpladser, - henholdsvis på Koh Similan og Koh Miang. I 1998 blev Koh Tachai med yderligere 12 km2 områder indlemmet i Marine Parken territorier, således at det samlede område nu dækker 140 km2, hvor af de 15 km2 udgør øernes land. Mu Koh Similan er administreret af Kommunen Kurabur, som er en del af Phang-nga provinsen.       

 

Similan” på Yawi (malaysisk) betyder ”ni” og referere simpelthen til antallet af øer der ligger på en stribe fra nord til syd. Den første ø (Koh Nueng, - nueng, betyder 1) er den sydligste. Koh Pead (ø otte) også kaldet Koh Similan er den største af øerne dækkende et areal på 5 km2, her findes også det højeste punkt i øgruppen på 244 m over havet.

 

Fyrstedømmet Monaco dækker 1,6 km2 og højeste punkt i Danmark er 173 m. o. h.
