Check in to our Dive Centre in Phuket (Thailand) by 8.15 am for departure by 9.00 am by air-conditioned mini-bus, arriving in Ranong (Thai/Burma border) by 3.00 pm, stopping en route for lunch. Check out at Immigration (Ranong) then cross the Pakchan river (the border) by wooden "longtail" boat to Kawthoung. Board the yacht plus sightseeing and shopping in this interesting border town, formally known as Victoria Point. Approximately 5.30 pm depart from Kawthoung for the Mergui Archipelago (Western Rocky Islet).

Western Rocky Islet
Three great dives here. Highlights of the dive site being a big cave filled with fifty or more lobsters and thousands of Glassfish. Good chance to see Manta-rays and Whale-sharks as well as the resident Grey Reef, Black Tip and White Tip sharks at this open ocean dive site.

Stewart Island, Cavern Island and High Rock
Three dives, plus optional night dive. Great macro life makes these sites a ‘must see’ on any diver’s checklist. Commonly seen are Sea Horses, Ornate Ghost-Pipe fish, Frog Fish, Stonefish, Turtles, Rays, sea snakes, Cuttlefish and much more. Guaranteed to give even the most experienced of diver’s a thrill!

Black Rock – Three dives.
This dive site consistently gives some of the best diving to be found anywhere in the Andaman Sea. A true oceanic dive site, with no other land in site. Big pelagics are common. Manta-rays, Whale-sharks, plus lots of other different types of sharks and rays can all be seen here. On top of this, you will see big schools of Jacks and Tuna. If this isn’t enough the macro life is also first-class but expect to spend your time looking away from the reef at the bigger stuff out in the blue.

Torres Islands & Devil Rock
Looking for Pelagics? Devil Rock will blow you away! Expect to see large schools of Mobula Rays (small Manta-rays). Virtually guaranteed and quite often in schools of one hundred and more. Bull-sharks are a common sighting at Torres Islands.

Early morning travel south back to Black Rock - three dives again. A night dive is available as additional dive.

In Through the out door'
Considered by virtually all of our guests to be the best dive of the trip. The highlight of this dive site is the big ‘swim-through’, which is home to more than ten resident Grey Reef sharks. The majority of the dive is spent being buzzed by these magnificent creatures. Inside the cave also lives a family of Nurse sharks, one of which is about four meters long. A very healthy coral reef, inhabited by a profusion of fish life is another bonus. Sea Horses are very common here. At the end of the afternoon we sail back to Kawthoung.
