Spectacular Views Above The Water

Beauty Above The Water Line

Phuket is not just beautiful under the water, it’s also quite spectacular above it. If you visit Phi Phi Island or some of our other dive sites you will see vast Limestone cliffs rising out of the water, completely out of place in the blue watery environment. Motor around to the other side and you’ll find exquisite beaches carved right out of the rock. Thailand truly is a marvelous geographically blessed place, here is a snippet of what you can see while diving with Local Dive Thailand.

Wreck Diving In Phuket And Further Afield

Phuket is not well known for wreck diving but we do have a few and some are very good. In one bay at Racha Yai we have 5!
