I second Ao Nang but recommend Dan Sasse at Posiedon dive centre - have dived with Dan many times and have referred divers to him who have been more than happy. PDC have their own boat and Dan is very very good with newer divers to experienced divers - Poseidon Dive Center Scuba Diving Ao Nang Krabi Thailand
Acommodation wise I like Baan Habebee Chalets if you can book one they are absolutely delightful, but very much in demand as there are only 6 bungalows. Baan Habeebee Resort
Still trying to figure out accommodation.
IDP's are by law not required in Thailand.Thanks all! Its Lanta Castaway and Dive and Relax. We have gone through many, many google images of andaman diving/marine life in the past few weeks and are very excited. We are leaning towards just diving all the days that we will be on Lanta!
boy22ban, we would like to rent a motorcycle once on the island - will we need international driving permits?

My only choice for diving and staying when in Koh Lanta. D&R will give you a boat brief a few minutes before 0900 on the beach in from of Lanta Castaway. Koh Haa and Phi Phi are both about 30-40 minute ride from the beach. Never entered the water later than 1000. Surface interval they serve lunch before your second dive. Usually when at Koh Haa, you are finishing up your first dive around the same time the larger slower cattle boats are dropping their divers in for their first dive. Depending on when all the dive groups are back on the boat, you should be back at the hotel 1330-1400.if you happen to dive with Rhi from UK or Robin from Germany, tell them Tom from New York and way of Kuwait said hi. Also ask them about "Captain Chang".Thanks all! Its Lanta Castaway and Dive and Relax.
