scuba diving hua hin

Post by buksida »

The short answer is no.

The closest place to Hua Hin that you can dive is Koh Talu, a small island off the coast of Bangsapan, 2 hours drive south of Hua Hin:

However the people that run the dive shop down there are hardly what you'd call professional, they don't even answer their emails.

After that and for much better diving go to Chumphon, another hour south:

All diving here is done out of the Cabana Resort.

After this its Koh Tao:

Give me a shout if you need a dive buddy

The short answer is YES.

I have just set up Hua Hin Divers at www.huahindivers.com

We take students and divers down to Koh Talu several times a week for diving. The drive is 2 hours max.

We have our own boat and it takes 20 mins to the dive sites.

We are usually back to Hua Hin around 4pm.

Cheers
