BLUE PARADISES, ANDAMAN SEA (Thailand)

[oliveb]

Hi there,

Video on a mixed diving trip (half dive center - half Liveaboard) in Thailand in March 2022.

First we head towards the region of Krabi and Koh Lanta in the south, diving in Koh Haa, the archipelago is pretty, few divers, visi 25 meters.Then back to Phuket, some very good sites: Racha Noi, Racha Yai, King Cruiser and Shark Point : to be transparent, the visi is very random on King Cruiser (7 meters) or Shark Point (15 meters)

Finally a "Similans and Surin" liveaboard, for this part I don't have too many words...however, what impressed me the most were the diversity of the coral, the colors, the underwater landscapes, hunting scenes and Richelieu Rock.

Have a good week.

Hi there Oliveb, Looks like it was an awesome trip.

I am planning to go to Thailand to scuba and also complete a freedive course, what was your experience of Phuket like? Are here good dive spots which can be easily accessed if I base myself in Phuket?

Hi Sheng Lee, experience in Phuket was very good, ...sure there are many spots you can access easily from Phuket : King cruiser, shark point, Racha Noi, Racha Yai ...And i did not have the time to do everything around. And for freediving there is great spots in Koh Lanta if you have time to go there
