Diving
in Thailand
Diving
is Thailand’s most popular water sport and the country
boosts some of the most beautiful dive sites in the
world - the water is clear, sea life plentiful, transport
and accommodation readily available and instruction
to a very high standard. Diving in Thailand is comparatively
cheap, and once you have achieved your certification
in Thailand, you can use it to go scuba-diving all
over the world.
| We
can available at all times of the year, although
visibility changes according to the season. In
the Andaman Sea, the best time to dive is from
October to April, and in the Gulf of Thailand
from May to September. At recommended dive sites
in Thailand the water is so clear that the under-water
world is visible from the surface. All reputable
dive shops are affiliated with PADI or other international
dive bodies, and most hold courses in multiple
languages. All over Thailand, we can expect modern
amenities, international standard boats and professional
facilities. |
Paradise
under the Sea |
For group or family travelers, all good live aboard
operations will take non-divers along at a substantially
reduced fee. Friends and family can relax, swim, sunbathe,
snorkel and still enjoy the food, trip, scenery and
experience of sailing in some of the world’s most
beautiful waters.
On Andaman sea, Dive sites are found off the coast
of Phuket with prime spots such as Shark Point, Red
Rock, Ko Yao, Ko Yai, and the twin islands of Ko Racha,
extending to the Similan and Surin islands to the
west, Krabi and Trang to the east.
