Des first emailed us here at S-6100 Aqua Vision, Krabi, Thailand about one month ago asking about doing the Padi Open Water diver course with us, we sent Des all the information and he chose to do the e-Learning option before coming to see us.

Great Low Season Diving

A question we are always asked at this time of year is “Can we go diving in the low season?”

The answer is always weather dependent all year round but the low season diving can be sometimes better than high season!

Both of these videos were taken in the last few weeks and show that there is a lot of beautiful marine life out there.

So don’t put off your holiday till the high season come right now in low season and get some great diving done.

We look forward to seeing you soon

The dive team at Aqua Vision are working together with the Shark Guardian organisation, and to assist them in their research, we are logging all of our dives, ( even the dives when we don’t encounter sharks provide useful info!) , at www.e-shark.org, so that they can get the right information about the numbers of sharks and rays in our local waters.

As Shark Guardian is a charitable organization, Aqua Vision are offering Shark Guardian merchandise for sale so that they can continue to do their great work, which is all about educating the younger and older generations that sharks are a vital part of the ocean eco-system and important for everyone’s future.

Shark Guardian and Aqua VisionCall into the Aqua Vision Dive Center in Ao Nang to pick up a Shark Guardian t-shirt or wristband, and help save the Sharks while looking cool at the same time.
