Most fish we’ve ever seen. We’re scuba diving Richelieu Rock in Thailand, one of the most famous sites in the Andaman Sea, to see if it’s beginner friendly and truly as epic as everyone says. Join our travel vlog from Khao Lak to the Similan Islands region and underwater at this iconic pinnacle. We’re digital nomads and a travel-loving couple sharing what it actually feels like to dive Richelieu Rock for the first time. Expect colorful soft corals, swirling schools of fish, giant trevallies on the hunt, and that “underwater city” vibe this site is known for. If you’re planning a Thailand trip, backpacking Southeast Asia, or building a scuba itinerary from Phuket or Khao Lak, this video shows the experience you can expect without spoiling the moments that made our dive unforgettable. Who this is for: • Digital nomads, tourists, and adventure seekers researching Thailand scuba diving • Couples planning a Similan Islands getaway or a Khao Lak base • Beginner divers wondering if Richelieu Rock is doable with an Open Water certification • Travelers who love cinematic underwater footage and honest first-timer tips In this vlog you’ll see: boat day logistics from Khao Lak, the ride out toward the Similan Islands area, our first descent at Richelieu Rock, insane fish action, macro moments, and how it felt diving as newer divers with a private guide. We also share what surprised us most and what we’d do differently next time. If you have questions about diving Richelieu Rock, seasons, currents, or planning from Phuket vs Khao Lak, drop them in the comments and we’ll help you plan your trip.
