Good to know
Minimum age 10, and the PADI medical questionnaire is required. The eLearning must be completed before the trip. The Samae San marine park fee (200 THB) is only paid in cash if the boat goes there. Best conditions from November to January depending on the centre, with trips running year-round.
Before you go
Good to know
Beat the crowds
Iconic spots like Maya Bay are far calmer early in the day. Our morning departures get you there before the midday ferry rush.
National park fees
Some sites sit inside a national park, so an entrance fee may apply. Check the “Not included” list above so there are no surprises.
Sun & reef care
The tropical sun is strong, bring a hat, sunglasses and plenty of water. Reef-safe sunscreen is required in Thai marine parks.
What to pack
Comfortable shoes, light breathable clothing, water and a small backpack for the day.
