The Burma Banks in Myanmar are a collection of seamounts located some 180 km north west of the Similan Islands. With surrounding waters exceeding a depth of 300 m, the top of the banks rise to within 15-24 m of the surface. The Banks used to offer one of the world's best shark dives due to their large population of Silvertips, but in last 3 years, fishing has made the reefs much less active. Some boats now don't go to the Banks and prefer diving the better sites in the Mergui Archipelago.
