Phuket snorkeling tips fpr non-diving friends ...

[highdesert]

Friends of ours, non-divers, will be in Phuket soon on business, and want to do some snorkeling. Knowing we're divers, and frequent Asia often (never been to Thailand, sorry), they thought we were the right people to offer them tips for snorkeling day trips around Phuket.

Anyone have thoughts about a company that can offer something not so touristy, something other than a group of tourists floating around in little vests? They're used to more "real" experiences, but they're just not divers.

Thanks for any tips!

Best choice for some real snorkeling is to join a diving boat on a trip to Racha Noi and Racha Yai. Especially Racha Noi is excellent with no boat traffic, and on these trips by the time they reach Racha Yai most of the boat traffic has left there already.
