Hey everybody,

In january and february I would like to learn diving. Next to that I would like to read, in peace, a case full of books.

The problem: friends of mine would like to visit me during their trip in... Thailand. Does it exist? A place in Thailand far away 'from it all' with a Padi- or SSI-diving school?

Thanks!

Sure! You can go to Kuraburi (I've been recommending that place a lot here recently, it seems!), or you can go down to Koh Lipe. Both are fairly remote, though Kuraburi is probably less on the tourist trail than Lipe is.

Thanks.

Is it true that visibility at Ko Chang & Ko Phayam and at Ko Ra & Ko Phra Thong is relatively less than at other diving places? It would be good for the first learning stages, but less interesting for advanced divers.

True?

I consider myself a fairly proficient diver, and I'm taking two rescue divers and one advanced open water diver up to Koh Phra Thong for some dives at Richelieu Rock next month.
