Phuket, the pearl of the Andaman, is an island where travellers the world over wish to visit at least once. Phuket has everything, and its dive sites can be reached so easily, quickly and conveniently that more than 300,000 divers come to Phuket every year. Diving can be combined with other activities very easily.
The Racha islands and the underwater rocks around Phuket are full of soft corals and sea fans. Sometimes more thanten Leopard Sharks can be encountered in a single dive. The dive operators on Phuket provide high standards, and the creation of a diving association has helped promote environmentally friendly activities.
