★★★★☆ Kata Beach North Reef

★★★★☆ Tha Tang Lake ขุมน้ำบ้านท่าแตง
Tha Tang Lake in Phang Nga, north of Phuket, offers a unique freshwater dive. This old tin mining site features submerged trees and wooden structures. Depths typically reach 15-17m with variable visibility (2-12m). An easy shore dive, it’s popular for buoyancy practice and exploring a non-reef environment.
★★★★☆ Racha Yai, Bay 1

★★★★☆ Racha Yai, Bungalow Bay
Bungalow Bay is a calm dive site and very good for beginners, try scuba, and open water students. Depth ranges from 5-20 meters. There is no current or waves. An artificial reef is built here as well.
★★★★★ Viking Cave
Viking Cave has a striking bay and a beautiful cave above the water, but the real deal is underwater a few hundred meters to the north of Viking Cave. A few years ago, the Phuket Marine Conservation department put down a beautiful artificial reef to re-establish marine life after the tsunami.
★★★★☆ Koh Waeo South
Koh Waeo is a small island accessible from Kamala in 40 minutes by boat or a shorter ride from Bangtoa Beach. This little island offers a huge underwater reef and plenty of fish. Currents are moderate to light year round - a perfect site for beginners. To the south, you will find fields of soft coral.
★★★★☆ Racha Noi, Marina Bay
Marina Bay is a dive site located on the western side of the North Island of Racha Noi. As you enter from the bay and head south, you'll see a dynamic landscape of rumbling megaliths overlapping each other. This is a popular dive site with swim-throughs dotted among the boulders to stimulate divers' sense of adventure. It is not uncommon for manta rays to appear.
★★★★☆ Anemone Reef
Super divesite with plenty of fish. This submerged pinnacle is completely covered in softcorals and anemones and home to a great variety of species.
★★★★☆ Koh Racha Yai
Racha Yai Island, about 20 km South of Phuket, is a year-round dive site, but unlike other dive sites the best conditions are during the rainy season from May to October, when the Eastern dive sites have the clearest water of any of the surrounding islands. Sites on the Western side are most often dived Nov-Apr.
★★★★☆ Racha Noi, Camera Bay
Camera Bay located west side of Racha Noi Island. Depht starts 5 meters and goes all the way to 60 meters. This is also good place for technical divers.
★★★★☆ Koh Bida Nai
One of many dive sites at Phi Phi islands. Small rocky island south from Phi Phi Lee. Diving depht starts at 5 meters and goes to 30 meters plus. This site lies just to the north of Koh Bida Nok and is made of limestone cliffs hosting a large array of marine life.
★★★★☆ Yanui Beach
Yanui Beach is a small beach facing west, near the southern tip of Phuket. As soon as you enter, you’ll be deep, but you will only dive down to about 12 meters. Near the center of the bay, at a depth of 8 meters, there is a large root called “corralea mole“ where schools of fish are found.
★★★★☆ Koh Bon Pinnacle
Not for beginners! Koh Bon Pinnacle starts at 22m and ends at 45m or deeper. Beautiful vegetation with lots of yellow soft corals are here. There are no descent ropes available. Doing a negative entry is an advantage!
★★★★☆ Three Trees
This point is located northeast of the 9th island in the Similan Islands. It is named after the three large trees that are used to mark the entry, from a shallow depth of about 5 meters to a reef slope of about 18 meters, beyond which there is a pure white sandy area dotted with isolated roots. Offshore, there are beautiful rocky areas with schools of soft corals, where you can see large fish. Because the tide splits on the island, the tide is clear and you can enjoy drift dives when the tide is strong.
★★★★☆ Shark Point (Hin Bida)
Shark Point is one the most famous and popular diving sites of Koh Phi Phi. It is maybe the best place to spot many Leopard Sharks resting and sleeping. The site consists of a large rock going down to 22 meters deep on a sandy bottom where the Sharks usually stay. Don’t worry, this kind of Shark is totally harmles
