Discover Scuba Diving on Phi Phi Island
Phi Phi Island, located 45 km east of Phuket in the Andaman Sea, is a popular destination for travelers. It takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Phi Phi Island by diving boat. The Phi Phi Islands consist of six islands, including the largest, Phi Phi Don, and Phi Phi Leh, which is famous for its beautiful bay, Maya Bay. Maya Bay on Phi Phi Leh is renowned for its extraordinary beauty and became a filming location for the movie "The Beach" starring Leonardo DiCaprio. The islands of Phi Phi are surrounded by steep limestone cliffs over 100 meters high, forming stunning bays and emerald-green seas that create a dramatic contrast with the cliffs—one of the island's greatest attractions. Diving around Phi Phi Island allows you to see a rich variety of marine life, from colorful tropical fish to macro species and pelagic fish. The dive sites feature diverse terrains such as drop-offs and swim-throughs, catering to divers of all levels from beginners to experts. This dive tour offers two dives at Phi Phi Island and one dive at a marine park, allowing a total of three dives in one day—a satisfying experience even for the most avid divers.

Phuket has two main seasons: high season from November to April, and green season from May to October. During summer, the Indian Ocean is affected by monsoons, sometimes causing high waves on offshore dive sites, which may affect conditions. Phi Phi Island is best visited in high season, but during the green season, if the waves are not too high, boats can anchor in calm bays for easy entry and exit. Due to the long travel distance, those prone to seasickness should avoid visiting during rough green season days.

Racha Noi Island, located further south of Racha Yai, is a dynamic dive site with large boulders on the seabed. Seasonal sightings of manta rays, spotted eagle rays, and whale sharks are possible. The north side targets larger marine life encounters, while the south side allows drift diving among boulders. A wooden wreck on the southwest hosts many fish. With depths of 10M~40M, it’s ideal for deep diving, but strong currents make it challenging for novice or inexperienced divers. Recommended for advanced divers with appropriate licenses.
