So if you want to dive the Phi Phi locations, why not come and stay on the nice island itself.
Phi Phi - Maya bay
Phi Phi is known as one of the better diving locations in Thailand, next to the Similan and Surin Islands and Koh Tao. Dive Trips to Phi Phi are run out of Phuket, Krabi, Koh Lanta and of course directly out of Phi Phi itself.

Hawksbill Turtle @ Phi Phi Island
One of the most fascinating creatures that a SCUBA diver or snorkeler will encounter at some time during their underwater experience will be the marine sea turtle. Of that family of Cheloniidae, the most beautiful is, without question, the Hawksbill Sea Turtle! With their raptor-like beak (hence the name) and its notably sharp cutting edge, their luminescent and colourful carapace (shell), the fin-like arms which differ from other marine turtles by reason of a pair of claws on each arm, and the saw-like appearance of its shell margins, the hawksbill is easily identified. The hawksbill exists throughout the world in the form of two subspecies….the Atlantic and Pacific subspecies E. i. imbricata and the E. i. bissa here in the Indo-Pacific region, which includes amongst others the andaman sea area where Snippy's Snaps Diving and myself are located (Phi Phi & Phuket). You can have multiple encounters with these beautiful creates during our dives. Meet the scuba team Working for an international company has brought me to a lot of places around the world; the last few years mainly to Asia and then specifically to Thailand. The first time I came to Thailand in 2007 I decided to pick up my diving after 2 years, because of course Thailand is one of the best places to dive. I immediately fell in love with diving again. When my company decided to station me in Thailand for 1.5 years, I decided to continue my diving-education with Aquanauts CDC. I made it up to Dive Master that time. Not because I was pursuing a professional diving-career, but more for fun and to build up my own experience and skill level. Last year my company sent me back to Thailand again for a period of 11 months in total, and of course I was diving every weekend. |
