Phuket, Thailand
Phuket is a colourful and unusual city that is much differ from the other Thailand. Asian Riviera with a huge veriety of villas on the cliffs along the coast, with hotels, inns and apartments for every taste in the modern part of the city and small tourist streets and houses in the colonial style in the old town... Fitness halls, modern shopping centres, strip clubs, cafes, coffee shops, massage parlours and any desires of the big and modern city. And of course sandy beaches and diving and freediving centres, where you will be offered any excursions to the local islands and archipelagos.
Diving conditions: at 10am we start by boat from Ra Wai Beach. About 20 - 30 minutes from the shore we set out on the spot and spend the next 2 hours freediving.
Sea conditions are variable all the time, but it's high season and they remain as comfortable as possible. The water temperature is 28 - 30 °C degrees on the surface. Visibility is 15 - 20 metres. Almost no currents up to 40 metres depth. From 40 to 60 metres there can be a thermocline where the temperature decreases to 20 degrees Celsius and currents can appear. The maximum possible depth is 70 metres (to be agreed in advance).
