On a whirlwind business/ pleasure trip. Suggestions for transportation to Phuket for diving.Diving is grand in Malaysia but I drop off from my party in KL and continue solo for 5 days. Would like to see and dive phuket as much as possible. thanks for the help! [color:purple] [/color]

Hi,
diving in thailand is mostly combined with a (long distance) speed boat trip (combined to the red sea or the maledives).
Most good places are well known to other tourists/divers, so you might not be alone when going deep.

Anyway, there are some really nice places around phi phi and a lot of other divers too.
Similan islands is spectacular, but quite far away.

In my opinion if you really want to dive, phuket is not the right place. Apart from that it is big party or simply like paradise.

cheers, enjoy your time

i just realised that it is 4 months after your post.
