Situated only a few hundred meters of the
southern end of Khao Nai
Yak, near Tublamu Harbour -
the Premchai wreck is a
great choice for a half day
trip or as an alternative to
the sloping reefs and
submerged pinnacles of the
Similan islands. This old
tin dredger sank only 9
years ago and is now a well
established nursery for a
large variety of marine
life. And it seems like
every year it attracts more
and more fish. Still in one
solid piece, you can see the
crack along the hull that
sank her. Due the massive
amount of nets and cables,
penetration is not allowed.
The wreck lies at an average
depth of between 16-20
meters, with the top of the
wreck extending to around 15
meters.
