Daily Phuket Dive Tour Itinerary

A Phuket dive tour may be a little different from other dive destinations. Some people are happy to take things as they come when traveling, some people like to know their daily itinerary so you can other activities around it. So here we have provided a Sample Day Trip Itinerary. By no means are these times guaranteed but a guide to how our day trip tours generally proceed.

It’s Not Set In Stone

Usually the sample Phuket dive tour itinerary is very close to the real thing. However, please remember that weather, current, dive groups and many external factors can affect travel and dive times. Please also remember that we take care of your pick up and drop off back to your hotel. Traffic is the biggest factor in any delay will so please plan your night time activities to take into account possible delays.

This is also to be considered for your no fly time. Our schedule can be pushed back a little if we experience delays so try not to leave the minimum time. Give yourself a minimum 1 hour extra to the absolute minimum of 18hrs surface time before flying. If not then unfortunately we have to prevent you from diving – something we really don’t want to do.

How Do I Minimise The Risk Of A Delay?

As mentioned before, traffic is the most likely thing to cause a delay. Staying close to where our boat departs from will go a long way to reduce the risk. Kata, Rawai, Nai Harn and Chalong are all good choices. The further north on Phuket that you stay the greater influence traffic will have. The main thing that divers and groups can do to reduce the risk of delays is be ready for the pick up. Probably the biggest reason for delay is guests not waking up in time so please try to be punctual.

So below is an example of one of our three different tour itineraries that we offer. To find out more about each trip you can go to our dedicated scuba diving day trip pages.

PADI Enriched Air Nitrox Course

The PADI Enriched Air Nitrox course is by far the most popular PADI specialty course conducted in Phuket. Diving with nitrox gives you much more no decompression time than diving with normal air. In dive locations like Phuket where we do 3 dives a day with 1hr surface intervals so it's a particular useful skill to have. The Similan Island liveaboards can schedule up to 4 dives a day so we would absolutely recommend being nitrox certified be [...]

Thailand Test And Go Returns!

Despite initial reservations, the Thailand Test and Go scheme was a massive boost for the Phuket diving industry. Even though the tourist arrivals were way below normal. A lack of diving options in south-east asia especially drew a large number of divers to Phuket. Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines all still have heavy restrictions on international tourism. In comparison getting to Thailand and especially Phuket is relatively easy e [...]
