Greetings,
I've been through the various threads asking questions about diving South Andamans, but I was not able to acquire a focus on my specific needs (or should I say wants? I am trying to balance my vacation between partying and diving). I dived Similans last year on a LOB (missed Richelieu rock though) and now I want to dive the this side to improve my experience in varied diving conditions
I plan to land in Phuket on the 23rd (I loved the street party on Bangla street on Christmas eve and want to repeat along with New Years). So I want to exit Phuket on the 25th to be back on the 30th. However I am thinking rather than waste time traveling the normal ferry and overland, I could dive my way to Ko Lanta, stay there a few days and do the day trips to cover Hin Daeng/Muang, Sailrock and Phi Phi spots like Shark Point , and maybe King Cruiser wreck on the way and come back diving all the way to land Phuket on the 30th (or 1st half of the day 31st)? Maybe 2D/1N LOB going 2D/1N LOB coming back?
However I could not find any overnight LOBs that appear to match my planned itinerary. Could you more knowledgeable folks suggest me how I can achieve this or some alternatives? I need to book my reservations and flights over the weekend before its too late.
Thanks and Regards
