Similan 2-day dive Package
Introduction
 |
There is simply too much amazing diving around Khao Lak to cover in one day, so many divers join a 4-day, 4-night liveaboard cruise. www.liveaboardthailand.com has all the departure dates and prices. |
| At a minumum, we recommend divers join the following 7-dive, two-day liveaboard to the Similan Islands, aboard MV Seapearl 3 or M/V Similan. |

Certification
|
To dive the Similans you must be certified to PADI Advanced Open Water standard. If you are not yet certified to this level, but are certified as PADI Open water, contact us and we will arrange your upgrade, at Khao Lak and before you go on the overnight tour, to PADI Advanced open Water. |
If you are not yet PADI certified, this is not a good place to learn, as the diving is deep and the prices relatively high. You are best advised to learn at Ao Nang instead. For those on a tight budget, the cheapest place to learn to dive is Koh Tao, where the prices are the lowest, but the diving is not as good as that near Ao Nang.
