Why That History Matters To Your Dive
That local history matters. It means knowing how the Thailand diving season changes, which routes suit different experience levels, how to prepare guests properly, and how to keep a dive day smooth from hotel pickup to boat return. Khao Lak remains the heart of the operation. From here, guests can plan Khao Lak dive sites, Boonsung Wreck, the Similan Islands, Koh Bon, Koh Tachai, the Surin Islands and Richelieu Rock when schedules and conditions allow.
