Big Blue Diving Khao Lak

Big Blue Diving has been offering diving in Thailand for over 20 years and in Khao Lak since 2003.
 Khao Lak is the perfect departure point for the Similan and Surin Islands. 
The clear waters of the Andaman Sea typically provide great visibility and a huge diversity of marine life.

Our Similan liveaboard and Similan day trips offer diving at both the Andaman Seas national parks including the amazing Koh Bon, Koh Tachai and Richelieu Rock commonly regarded as Thailand’s best dive site.

All our day trips are two dives, with Richelieu Rock on the schedule three days a week — the fastest way to see the best of the Similan and Surin National Parks.

Journeys take 50 to 80 minutes depending on the site, with a home-cooked Thai buffet lunch after the first dive and plenty of time to be back on the beach for sunset.
