One-Day Dives at Koh Tao + Chumporn Dive Sites (from a Dive Boat, via Lomprayah Connection) Diving

Description

We invite you on an exciting one-day trip to one of the best dive sites of the Gulf of Thailand! On the way to the dive site you will learn about the peculiarities of the local dive sites and the flora and fauna of the South China Sea's Gulf of Thailand. During the trip you can also widen your circle of acquaintances, meeting divers from around the world. Meanwhile, a Russian-speaking guide will always be nearby to answer all your questions and make your trip unforgettable. This offer is intended for already certified, experienced divers.

Koh Tao. In the north-east of Koh Tao lies one of the most beautiful spots in the Gulf of Thailand, also perfect for snorkelling (depths up to 4 metres). Once, the sandy beaches of this paradise were chosen by sea turtles for breeding — hence the island's second name, Turtle Island. To this day, this unhurried and graceful creature can be seen at many dive sites. Chumporn (Chumporn Pinnacle) is the second impressive dive site, located 11 kilometres west of Koh Tao. One large rock and many smaller ones rise above the sea. Underwater they are covered with various coral species that shelter a great number of reef fish, including barracudas and anemonefish. Glassfish can also be seen here. The main rock — a pinnacle — starts 14 metres below the surface and drops to 36 metres. Here you can see large groupers and, periodically, various reef sharks (bull sharks, whale sharks and others), barracudas, rays, travelly-fish and more. In the opinion of many divers, this is one of the best dive spots in Thailand.

Our Russian-speaking guide-instructor will stay by your side throughout the programme, monitoring your well-being and the operation of the diving equipment.
