Dive Asia
Phuket Thailand is often referred to as the ‘Pearl of the South’ and for scuba divers it’s certainly the crown jewel of the Andaman Sea. This island paradise lies only 8 degrees north of the equator; it enjoys a tropical climate with average water temperature of 28°C/78°F and has an amazing variety of aquatic life.
For divers, the true treasures of the Andaman Sea are hidden below the surface, where the vast panorama explodes into a virtual symphony of colors and corals. The warm, clear water draws large schools of tropical fish, manta rays, and the awe-inspiring whale shark. The wealth of aquatic life combined with good visibility will delight underwater photographers and marine naturalists.
World class diving, superb scenery, great entertainment and international resort facilities - Phuket Thailand has all the right ingredients for a perfect diving holiday.
- Dive Asia's head office at Kata Beach was founded in 1988 as one of the first dive shops in Phuket. In 1992, a second Dive Asia office was opened at Karon Beach.
- In October 1997, Dive Asia became the first PADI 5 Star Career Development Center in Phuket/Thailand - one of only three in all of Southeast Asia.
- In December 2000, we added a new two-story training facility/equipment center with five air-conditioned classrooms, specially designed training pool, restaurant, air/nitrox/rebreather filling station, workshop and top quality rental equipment.
- Two comfortable, well designed dive boats cruise to Thailand's best dive sites - the M/V Dive Asia I offer liveaboards to the Similan and Surin National Parks, while the M/V Dive Asia II makes daily trips to Phuket's best local dive sites.
