Local Dive Thailand - Similan Islands

The team at Local Dive Thailand are just good people, plain and simple. We’ve spent enough time on dive boats to know that a friendly crew makes all the difference, and theirs are consistently helpful, whether you’re fumbling with a new BCD or just need a hand with your fins. They run a tight ship, literally, on their own vessel, M/V Kepsub. This means a consistent schedule and well-maintained gear, which we appreciate. We love that they cover a broad range of PADI courses, from Discover Scuba Diving to Divemaster, making them a solid choice if you're looking to progress your skills or introduce a newbie to the underwater world. Our favourite touch is their attention to the smaller details. Expect a decent lunch spread, hot drinks, and plenty of space to relax between dives. For those heading to the Similans, they know the currents and best entry points like the back of their hand, often getting you in just before the crowds arrive. We'd suggest asking about their early morning trips to Koh Bida Nok if you want to catch leopard sharks before other boats show up. You’ll feel the sun warming your face on the surface and then plunge into that cool, clear blue, spotting massive schools of snapper. They’re honest about conditions, too – if it’s choppy, they’ll tell you. It’s that kind of straightforward approach that keeps us coming back.
