Square Rock, Shark Cave and Submarine
Shark enthusiasts will not be disappointed in Burma. Nurse sharks can be seen sunbathing among the crustaceans in the solitude of their hidden homes in underwater caves. Shark Cave is home to a group of nurse sharks up to four meters long, as well as large blotched stingrays and whip rays. If you take the time to investigate beyond the cave's apparent charms, you will find a floor covered with yellow sponges, a ceiling covered in marigold cup corals, and a plethora of marine pleasures...
Don't be deceived by the small size of Square Rock; this location is teeming with marine life. Similarly, diving into the water at Submarine will land you in a fish-nado. We are confident that you will agree that this is one of the fishiest sites you have ever visited. Shark Cave is a famous area for groups of up to 4m long nurse sharks, as well as blotched stingrays and whip rays. Stay vigilant wherever you go because you are almost certain to encounter ghost pipefish and seahorses, but you may also see harlequin shrimp, pineapple fish, marble rays, bamboo sharks, and whale sharks. Both of them are one of the best dive sites in Burma.
