Koh Racha Yai Island is a popular site among divers due to the clear visibility ( an average of 15 - 30 meters) all year round.
Consisting mostly of
hard coral sloping reefs with a flat bottom covered with white sand, the site is sheltered inside the bay and is thus free from strong currents.
This combination makes
Koh Racha Yai Island an ideal place for beginners and infrequent divers.
There are also deeper reefs, which are suitable for more experienced divers.
Like all dive sites in Phuket we are lucky to have a constant water temperature of 29C / 84F.
Koh Racha Yai is under one hour via
Thailand Divers fast day trip boat.
7.30am:
We come and collect you from your hotel lobby and transfer you by one of our air-conditioned mini buses to our day trip diving boat.
Your Divemaster will be waiting for you on the boat, and after a short briefing on the boat and the facilities on-board it is time for some breakfast which will be freshly prepared for you by the boat crew.
Whilst making our way to the amazing coral reefs surrounding the island of Koh Racha Yai, which is south of Phuket, you will have an hour or so with your Divemaster to go though the safety procedures and checks before diving and during diving and what we are likely to see and what to keep an eye out for.
Once we have arrived at the dive sites now it is time to get the scuba gear on, do a buddy check and now you are ready to go scuba diving on one of the best places in the world.
You are going to be amazed at what you can see down there;
Corals soft and hard, millions of tropical fish and much, much more.
After an hour or so relaxing or snorkeling then it is time for the second dive of the day in a different location on the island.
Once you are back on board a hot buffet lunch will be served by the boat crew and this gives you time to relax with your Divemaster and discuss what you have seen on the dive with some fish identification books which are on board.
After an hour and a half it is time to gear up for the last time and of we go for the final dive of the day.
All dives are no decompression dives to a maximum time of 50 minutes or low on air, and then a mandatory safety stop at 5 meters for 3 minutes.
Once back on board after the dive we make our way back to the port giving you time to discuss the dive with your buddy's and the divemaster. We will return you to your hotel around 5pm.
