Scuba Diving Holiday Thailand : DHT
Dive Southern Thailand – 12 nights - 24 dives
Description
We take our scuba divers to stay in 3 different destinations in Thailand, selected according to their experience and covering over 100 dive sites. No other company combines these different destinations for you, ensuring that you see not just the best scuba diving in one area of the country, but the best scuba diving in the whole of Thailand. Why dive just one part of Thailand, when with us you can dive the best sites in the entire country ?
Beginners / Potential divers - can get professionally qualified and then visit some of Thailand's premier sites - convert at any time to a sensational non-diving holiday which shares the same itinerary as the divers.
- Experienced divers - tour the best dive sites in the whole of Thailand.
- Non-diving companions - provided with an extensive range of alternative activities on dive days
- Families and mixed groups of non-divers, beginners, potential and experienced divers can enjoy their holiday together.
Thailand Scuba Diving Holidays
We offer two alternative scuba diving holidays packages. Both start in Ao Nang, where beginners take a PADI Open Water course and from where the following top dive sites of the central Andaman region are covered: Ao Nang Local Islands, Koh Phi Phi, King Cruiser Wreck, Anemone Reef and Shark Point, Koh Haa. We do not take novice divers to the certification-factories on Koh Tao due to over-crowding. After Ao Nang we move on to Koh Lao Liang, a pristine, unspoiled eco-resort with access to the following sites Koh Rak, Koh Lao Liang Nong / Koh Lao Liang Pi, Hin Daeng and Hin Muang.
After Koh Lao Liang, holiday package “DHL” concludes with a Similan islands liveaboard covering the sites Similan Islands, Koh Bon, Koh Tachai, Richelieu Rock, Surin islands.
Meanwhile, holiday package “DHT” concludes on Koh Lipe in the Koh Tarutao National Park . Click here for dive sites in the Koh Tarutao National Park.
We recommend that groups that include non-divers or which include unsure beginners or potential divers choose holiday package “DHT”, as the Tarutao islands will for most such people be more enjoyable than choosing scuba diving holiday package ”DHL” and accompanying the Similan liveaboard as a non-diver. We recommend that groups of experienced divers choose Thailand scuba diving holiday package “DHL”, as most experienced divers will find the Similan liveaboard unmissable – if experienced divers also want to dive Koh Tarutao National Park , contact us.
We recommend that Thailand scuba beginners buy the PADI Open Water manuals and study them before the start of the holiday. Also that they complete the swimming pool sessions before the Thailand suba diving holiday, This way divers will maximize the enjoyment of their holiday. If you do not want to do your studying and pool dives before coming to Thailand and prefer to do all your training in Thailand, contact us.
In order to tailor your holiday to your exact requirements, you may decide to choose any of the activities on the Ao Nang Activities pagein place of an Ao Nang dive day. You may do this at any time up to the night before the scheduled dive day. Almost all of the activities on the Ao Nang Activities page cost less than diving, so we will refund all divers converting to an Ao Nang Activity THB 1,500.
