hi there

first, i would like to apologize if this question has been answered in a previous thread.

i am coming to phuket on july 2nd for a few days and was wondering if there were any opportunities to do a beginners dive with an instructor somewhere on the island. after searching through google, ive only come across 2-5 day packages, licensing courses, and etc. i dont have a license, and am hoping to do a supervised dive.

if you have any suggestions/recommendations, i would really appreciate it! thanks a lot!

Yes, Mark, it is perfectly possible to do a one-day supervised dive which is not a certification course. PADI calls it 'Discover Scuba Diving', SSI (and NAUI) calls it 'Try Scuba'. Just contact any dive shop on the island and they will set you up.

Yes, no problem at all. You normally will do 2 dives on the day, supervised by an instructor.

thanks for the help!
