Asia Blue Scuba Koh Phangan

4.6(298 reviews)

Asia Blue Scuba is a dedicated dive centre located in the Ban Tai area of Koh Phangan, catering to everyone from complete beginners to experienced divers looking to explore the Gulf of Thailand's underwater landscape. The centre offers a range of PADI certification courses alongside fun dives, making it a practical base for those wanting to discover the reefs and marine life surrounding the island. Visitors can expect a structured, professional environment with knowledgeable instructors and small group sizes that allow for personalised attention in the water. Koh Phangan's dive sites offer the chance to encounter reef fish, coral formations, and larger pelagic species depending on the season, and Asia Blue Scuba is well positioned to guide divers to the most rewarding locations in the area. The centre is open seven days a week from 8:00am, with slightly extended hours on Saturdays until 7:00pm. Those planning to complete a certification course should book in advance, as courses typically span multiple days and require scheduling around boat departures and weather conditions. The dive season in the Gulf of Thailand generally runs from April through to November, with calmer seas and better visibility during these months, though the centre operates year-round. Checking the website ahead of arrival is recommended for current course availability and pricing.

Tips for Visiting Islands

Book Ferries on 12Go.Asia

The 12Go platform lets you compare ferry operators, times, and prices between islands. Book a day or two ahead in high season. Avoid the cheapest operators if reviews mention safety concerns.

Check Island Closures

Similan Islands, Surin Islands, and Koh Tachai close mid-May to mid-October. Some smaller islands reduce ferry service in monsoon season. Always verify schedules before planning your route.

Snorkel Gear Is Cheap to Buy

Rental gear is often scratched and ill-fitting. Buy a decent mask and snorkel at a Big C for 300–500 THB — cheaper than two days of rentals and much more hygienic.
