Description
This experience begins with a hotel pickup in Phuket and a boat transfer to Racha Yai island. Upon arrival, you meet your certified dive instructor for a detailed briefing on scuba fundamentals, safety, and equipment usage. No prior diving experience is required.
You will complete two dives at carefully chosen sites around the island known for vibrant coral reefs and abundant marine life such as angelfish, parrotfish, clownfish, starfish, sea urchins, and possibly sea turtles. Both dives are supervised to ensure your comfort and safety while you explore the underwater environment up to 12 meters deep.
Between dives, relax on the boat with provided lunch and refreshments. You can also snorkel or enjoy the surrounding scenery. After the second dive, the boat returns you to the pier in Phuket, where a transfer takes you back to your hotel.
