Nice&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Vacation &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;was gazetted on 29 July 1981 covering an area of 135 square kilometers just a few km south of Thailand-Myanmar border on Andaman sea. About 76% of the total area is sea, and rest are islands - there are 5 main islands in the park. Surin island Nua (north island), Surin island tai (south island) are the two largest islands; other three beingRee island(or Satok island),Glang island (or Pachumba island), and Khai island (or Torinla island).&lt;br /&gt;Surin islands are roughly 60 km to the west of Phang Nga coast, and about 100 km to the north of Similan islands. These have been a refuge for the fishing boats during rough weather, as well as home for the sea gypsies.&lt;br /&gt;Marine environment &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_K_rlqfItEtg/SiDcSjalJuI/AAAAAAAAAH8/auPIHkiR0Rg/s1600-h/ScreenShot001-999.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5341511369363891938" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 237px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_K_rlqfItEtg/SiDcSjalJuI/AAAAAAAAAH8/auPIHkiR0Rg/s320/ScreenShot001-999.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since these islands are located at deep sea far from the mainland, the environment is quite clean and almost pollution-free. The islands are covered by healthy forest and thus the amount of eroded materials entering the sea is minimum. Visibility in the water is very good and nice &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Vacation&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;Coral growth is healthy especially in the sheltered bays on the eastern sides of the islands. The sea around the islands is also rich in marine life. In addition to the hard and soft corals there are sea feathers, star fish, spiny lobster, giant clam and so on. Fish species found around the reefs are parrot fish, clown fish, black tip shark, lion fish, angel fish, etc.&lt;br /&gt;Terristrial environment&lt;br /&gt;Three different types of forest cover the islands. From the coast up to the peaks of hills, tropical evergreen forests are found. Along the beaches of the larger islands there are beach forest. In the more sheltered areas and around the mouths of rivers where the water is brackish, mangrive forests exist. &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_K_rlqfItEtg/SiDcfJMP34I/AAAAAAAAAIE/fSRVt9qFpHY/s1600-h/ScreenShot005.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5341511585662754690" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 95px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_K_rlqfItEtg/SiDcfJMP34I/AAAAAAAAAIE/fSRVt9qFpHY/s320/ScreenShot005.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Surin island principal attraction is the fact that it is an up spoilt tropical paradise far from the mainland, with healthy forested islands surrounded by clean water supporting a world of marine life.

Some come in ferryboats, while the others come in chartered boats with equipment for diving, snorkeling and so on.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7544674282725899298-5271651264514035599?l=vacation-in-thailand.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
