[Scuba diving notes]
Diving Site Arrangement: The dive sites are arranged based on the sea conditions, wave speed, and safety assessment of the day, and may be adjusted due to natural conditions.
Marine Ecosystem: The waters around Ko Racha Yai boast rich biodiversity, but fish quantity and visibility may vary depending on weather, tides, and other factors, resulting in potentially different experiences.
Diving instructions: This is an introductory diving activity. The actual diving depth will be adjusted based on participants' physical conditions and instructors' safety assessment, potentially reaching 5-12 m, but depth achievement is not guaranteed for every participant.
Ear Pressure and Physical Safety: During diving, if you experience ear pressure discomfort, actively cooperate with the instructor to adjust. If significant discomfort occurs, immediately signal to terminate the descent. Contact with corals or rocks may occur during diving, and minor abrasions are normal risks. Please take precautions to protect yourself.
Photo Note: Photo quality is affected by the diver's condition. More photos can be taken when the diver is in good condition, progresses quickly, and the instructor can operate freely. For higher photo output, we recommend booking a 1-on-1 discovery dive.
Valuables: It is not recommended to bring valuables. If necessary, please keep them properly by yourself. The company is not responsible for any loss of valuables.
