It is no exaggeration that dive sites around Koh Samui are among the best in the South East Asia region. It is no surprise then that visitors to Thailand, who are there to enjoy a summer vacation in a tropical climate even secretly harbour a wish to try this water sport adventure even if they have never done it before. Those who are no stranger to the techniques do find their prospects extremely promising as the reviews for the diving sites are extremely good and one is most likely to discover that the actual experience far outshines what was described.
The tropical climate together with warm water makes this feat a pleasant one to achieve while the stunning underwater world posses a huge attraction with an abundance of sea creatures awaiting to surprise you with their splendour rarely revealed to the outer world . From among the best sites for diving, Bophut Beach and Chaweng Beach are great points from which to start your excursions. The Angthong National Park and Sail Rock happen to be world class diving sites that are better for advanced divers.
For those who are especially interested in the marine life, the reef sharks, black tip sharks, even 3-10 metre long whale sharks as well as sea turtles and many more other interesting sea creatures can be seen at these popular spots. The shallow waters of the sea with clear visibility for several metres of depth together with a relative lack of strong currents, except in the monsoon season, make this truly a paradise for divers.
What is even more encouraging are the number of instructors and diving schools that offer different segments of diving capacities and qualifications. These places of instructions are located on the coastal areas and also offer a range of equipment and diving gear for an affordable price; the courses also charge only a nominal fee, thus offering a superb prospect for those on a low budget vacation.
One can easily find a Samui Resort that offers a memorable vacation for quite a competitive price. Anantara Bophut Koh Samui comes under the famous banner of Anatara, a renowned name in the hospitality trade and is as promising as it sounds with rich Thai inspired interiors, overlooking tropical lush gardens and offering a range of residential options from spacious rooms to elegant suites. This Samui hotel is truly a paradise in this warm tropical island offering indoor charms that are as fascinating as the outdoor summer coastal adventures in this region of Thailand.
