Diving @ King Cruiser Wreck & Shark Point







April 4th, 2007

Today, our 2nd optional dive was a Wreck Dive at King Cruiser. Back in ’97, the passenger ferry ‘King Cruiser’ was on a routine run to Phi Phi Island before it hit Anemone Reef and eventually sunk. Shortly after, the very experienced captain was nowhere to be found for questioning or briefing…conspiracy theorists suggest it was all an insurance fraud scam!

Anyways, the wreck was neat; we came across the engine room, bar, tables, stairways and a couple of toilets (with mooray eels poking out!)

Our 3rd optional dive was an introduction to Underwater Photography at Shark Point. For those interested, just remember; no flash, point upwards and get close! (that’s the take home message!)


After a nice dinner at Cosmics (yummy thin crust pizza!) but crappy cockroach lingering by the table, we enjoyed the luminous sunset at the beach.
