Archipelago
 The
Myeik Archipelago, located in southernmost part of
Myanmar (Burma) comprises of over 800 beautiful
islands scattered more or less parallel to the cost
of 480 km long Myeik Peninsula on the Andaman Sea.
Myeik (formerly Mergui) Archipelago is famous and
well known because of its crystal blue water,
untouched coral reef and uninhabited islands
clustered close to one another. Some are rocky and
some are forested which some have sandy beach. Hilly
islands are of limestone stretch-out for hundreds of
meters forms caves and enclosed lakes assessable at
low tide through rock tunnels. Sea swallows (swifts)
build their nests high which can be very hard to
reach; the agile collectors are claver enough to get
the nest with risk as bird's nests are valuable for
human consumption.
The Myeik Archipelago is
largely
uninhabited save for the nomadic Sea Gypsies, called
Salons by Myanmar. The Salons are acknowledged to be
expert divers and swimmers. They live on boats
during dry season and remain on land during rainy
season and fish for living.

Archipelago is also quite famous dive spot in scuba
divers world. There are many dive sites and
undoubtedly waiting to be discovered. Among of them
Black Rock, Western Rocky, Twin Islands and OK Rock

attractions for divers is the strong possibility of
seeing big animals, especially sharks and rays. More

smaller fish and reef creatures, including many
unusual species. Thus, why don’t you take the
opportunity to visit one of the last and most
diverse, untouched frontiers in Myanmar!! |
