Hello To All,
My husband and I are looking to dive the Similan Islands late December 2012 on a live aboard. I've been going back and forth on on where to 'hang out hat', whether that be Phuket or Khao Lak.
My initial gut feeling says Khao Lak for a couple of reasons: 1. It's closer to the islands 2. I feel it's not a commercial as Phuket (but because I feel that doesn't mean that it's necessarily true). Also, my husband will be getting his OW cert. wherever we end up.
We're going to be on a fairly tight budget so if you guys have any great recommendations or insight to help us make a decision, that would be great!
Cheers!
