Phuket & Phi Phi - RACHA ISLANDS #1

These islands are considered ‘going south’ when leaving from the Phuket area. Comprising Ko Racha Yai and Ko Racha Noi, they offer a good variety of multi-level dives. Experienced divers are better off at some of the more challenging current-fed sites off Racha Noi, while every level of diver from snorkeler and novice through to experienced will find a Racha Yai experience a good one.

Generally good visibility and protected reefs, especially along Racha Yai’s eastern coastline, make this a very popular check-out and training area, with shallow bays and sandy bottoms busy with divers and snorkelers most of the time.

There are some very pleasant resorts on these islands, so people can stay and dive right from Racha Yai; however, most come over on a day trip from the Phuket area.
