Discovery Dive Centre
Thailand
Koh Tao is an excellent choice for beginners and experienced divers alike. There are about 12 different dive sites that we generally visit and which dive sites we do on a particular day will depend on the prevailing weather and dive conditions. Among dive sites available are Chumphon Pinnacle, Mango Bay, Shark Island, Twin Rocks, Japanese Gardens, as well as others. Generally we depart from our pier about 8:50 and return to the pier about 16:00. This tour is available for certified divers, and snorkelers also. All trips are taken our own Discovery Divers speedboats and include all equipment.
