Liveaboard Diving in Phi Phi Islands Thailand

South side of Phuket in Thailand you will find the very magnificent liveaboard excursions to Phi Phi Islands, Hin Daeng, Hin Muang and Phuket's popular day diving spots of Racha Noi and Racha Yai. Most Liveaboards depart from the south tip of Phuket - Chalong Bay that is the location of Agent Liveaboards head office. Shorter trips are more readily available to these sites for one or two night stays. Phi Phi has multi-colored lagoons, fresh water caves, interesting micro-species including harlequin shrimps, ghost pipefish, sea horses plus great beaches to escape to if you fancy an hour or two of privacy.

Hin Daeng is an underwater limestone pinnacle that rises a few meters above the surface and drops to 60 meters a real winner with closed circuit rebreather divers and technical divers. The pinnacle is covered with soft corals and anemones with schools of barracuda, jacks, trevally and sail fish. Hin Muang only a few hundred meters away is completely submerged and covered in purple soft corals and anemones. Whale sharks and Mantas surprise many of the divers as they enjoy the depth that surrounds the two sites. The beauty of Phi Phi Island is that you can dive here all year round with water temperatures rarely dropping below 29 degrees.

There's more to Phi Phi Islands

No1: Dreamy Maya Bay. Made famous by Leonardo Di Caprio in the film The Beach you will not want to miss this.

No2: Long Tails. An inspiring contribution from the local Thai's offering tourists island hopping and possibly the best transport in the Andaman Sea!

No3: Fire Dancing. A Phi Phi Island specialty and even the travelers can master this fine art after a few lessons, but only on the beach!

No4: Leopard Sharks. They are everywhere even visible hiding in the corals for the snorkelers to see.

No5: Bonus areas. Most of the 2 days/2 nights liveaboard excursions will drop you off at the King Cruiser Wreck on the way back just for diving fun!

Phi Phi Islands only a few hours from Phuket, Thailand offers divers not only great diving but also a sanctuary of pleasures, five star luxury resorts, fire dancing and local interaction with a beautiful Thai Island culture that you will find hard to beat anywhere in the world.
Agent Liveaboard Verdict: Phi Phi Island in Thailand is a world-class diving destination providing stunning topography and escapism for the young and the young at heart. But be warned if you visit Phi Phi with no cars and no roads to speak about you may never want to come back, it's a simple island life that many only dream about.
