Qualified Scuba Divers
Scuba Day Trips
Phuket is the gateway to some of Thailand’s most exciting dive sites, and as a certified diver you can join us on unforgettable day trips designed to match your experience and sense of adventure.
If you have not dived for more than one year or feel out of practice, consider starting with our Scuba Refresher at the Racha Islands before choosing a more challenging trip. You can also compare all qualified-diver options and check rental scuba equipment before booking.
Year-Round Local Dive Sites
Our daily 3-dive trips run all year and take you to Phuket’s most popular local sites, including Racha Islands, Phi Phi Islands, King Cruiser Wreck, Shark Point, and more. With short transfers, vibrant reefs, wrecks, and abundant marine life, these trips are the perfect way to enjoy Phuket diving in comfort and style.
National Marine Parks – November to May
For those seeking Thailand’s very best diving, the Similan Islands, Surin Islands and Richelieu Rock offer world-class experiences with breathtaking reefs, dramatic walls, and the chance to encounter manta rays and whale sharks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I Need Scuba Diving Insurance?
Thailand Divers requires all certified divers joining scuba day trips, liveaboards or courses for certified divers to have their own suitable scuba-diving insurance before diving. This includes Refresher, Advanced Open Water, Nitrox and Deep Diver courses. Insurance is not included in these bookings.
Your existing travel insurance or personal dive insurance is acceptable if it covers your planned scuba diving in Thailand, including the activities, maximum depth and all dive dates, with cover for dive-accident medical treatment, emergency evacuation and recompression chamber treatment. Check eligibility, limits and exclusions with your insurer and bring confirmation of cover.
If you already have suitable cover, you do not need to buy another policy. If you need cover, see our scuba insurance guide and DAN short-term option. Check the policy before purchasing.
Scuba-diving accident cover is included for Discover Scuba Diving, Explore Scuba and Open Water students during their booked course, subject to eligibility and policy terms. These students do not need to arrange separate scuba cover for those course activities. This does not replace travel insurance or cover later certified fun dives.
