While you cruise over the turquoise waters between the lush jungle-covered limestone islands dotting the horizon, scan the seas for a glimpse of the Mokens, a tribe of nomadic sea gypsies. If you are into birding, you should also survey the island\u2019s green canopies, as 228 species of birds inhabit in the area.<\/p><p>Myanmar\u2019s best dive sites are quite a way from the coasts, which means they\u2019re usually private. It\u2019s very rare to cross paths with other dive boats, which is a treat most divers never experience. And, not only will you appreciate the exclusivity of the Mergui Archipelago, but you will also experience some of the most beautiful and diverse sites in the Andaman Sea.

The rock pops out of the ocean far from any other islands, and its walls are covered in soft coral and impressive rock formations. The visibility is usually great, which allows divers to peep at barracuda, trevally, and tuna. But Black Rock is mostly known as a great spot to see oceanic manta rays, as it is one of their favorite spots in the Andaman Sea to find a mate and breed. The rich coral reef is also home to many species of tropical fish and macro life.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-82b4662 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"82b4662\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-5f05c56\" data-id=\"5f05c56\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-400bd53 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"400bd53\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"697\" src=\"https:\/\/mexplor.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Shark-Cave-Mergui-Archipelago-MExplor-Blog.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-6841\" alt=\"Shark Cave - Mergui Archipelago - MExplor Blog\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mexplor.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Shark-Cave-Mergui-Archipelago-MExplor-Blog.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/mexplor.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Shark-Cave-Mergui-Archipelago-MExplor-Blog-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mexplor.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Shark-Cave-Mergui-Archipelago-MExplor-Blog-768x535.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mexplor.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Shark-Cave-Mergui-Archipelago-MExplor-Blog-600x418.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" title=\"MExplor\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-ed7e79e\" data-id=\"ed7e79e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-978c1c7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"978c1c7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Shark Cave<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-673ca83 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"673ca83\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Shark Cave is a topographical playground for divers who love nooks, crannies, and swim-throughs.

This vast area has numerous unexplored dive sites as it is one of the furthest from land, sitting roughly 100 nautical miles (180 km) west of Kawthaung. The underwater seamounts are enormous, starting at 1150 feet (350 m) and rising up to about 50 feet (15 m). The visibility is often close to 130 feet (40 m). Since sites are quite exposed there are often strong currents, which makes for great drift dives. This is also a hotspot for nurse sharks and other rarer sharks and rays coming up from the depths, such as silvertip or tiger sharks and huge blotched rays. Aside from the sharks, the Burma Banks are also home to beautiful tropical creatures such as honeycomb moray eels, and clown triggerfish, which you curiously seldom encounter in the rest of Mergui Archipelago.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0deaf6f elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"0deaf6f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;sticky&quot;:&quot;top&quot;,&quot;sticky_on&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;],&quot;sticky_offset&quot;:90,&quot;sticky_parent&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;sticky_effects_offset&quot;:0,&quot;sticky_anchor_link_offset&quot;:0}\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/\/www.dive-the-world.com\/?ref=6839\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dive-the-world.com\/image\/admin\/pic-banner-300x350-C.jpg\" alt=\"Visit Dive The World -

A few boats have occasional cruises departing from Khao Lak in Thailand, but the best departure point is from the border itself. Ranong is on the Thai side of the border and Kawthaung on the Myanmar side, and cruises can pick up guests on either side of the border, but you must arrange permits and visas in advance. Most visitors join their cruise in Ranong (about 186 miles\/300 km north of Phuket). You can typically fly from Bangkok to Ranong on one of three daily flights with domestic low-cost airlines Nok Air and Air Asia. You can also fly into Phuket and take a taxi or bus along the scenic coastal route to Ranong.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-7c1e372 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7c1e372\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-0199d26\" data-id=\"0199d26\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1f18be1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1f18be1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Best time to go to the Mergui Archipelago<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-93cbbd1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"93cbbd1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The best time to dive the Mergui Archipelago is between late October and mid-May, when the skies are blue, and the sea is calm.
