Live aboard southern Thailand.
Scuba diving and live aboard
diving trips into the
Andaman Sea (a part of the
Indian Ocean) one of the last unexplored part on our
planet are a unique experience. The Andaman Sea is
off the West coast of Thailand and Myanmar
(Burma) and is the ideal area for live aboard trips.
Live aboard scuba diving trips
in southern Thailand are
mainly operated out of Phuket visiting the underwater attractions around Phuket Island, the
Similan
Islands,
Phangnga Bay and many other places. One very
promising trip via liveaboard is into the Andaman Waters off the Myanmar
(Burma) Andaman coast. |

In this area there
was
almost no contact to foreigners
since the nineteen century. The last times
foreigners were seen in the Myanmar Andaman Sea was
during
British colonial time, now slowly some "live aboard" diving tours are
offered out of Phuket.
There are not many places on
earth so
untouched and this wont last very long and
you |
|
can enjoy it only with live aboard trip.
Pls. have a look into the new
e-book (also printed version) on “the
Andaman Sea and the Sea Nomads” which includes a
comprehensive chapter on the underwater world in the
Andaman Sea. |

A live aboard trip could just
be the right add on for your vacation in southern Thailand.
Different boats, yachts and bigger ships
are available in Phuket southern Thailand for a scuba diving
adventure via a life aboard trip.
You can eat and sleep on the yacht,
have several dives per day with a experienced diva master accompanying
you and your fellow scuba diver.
Live aboard to a scuba diving paradise over the
horizon can be a great outdoor escape. Spend some time to get an
idea of the environment in the Andaman Sea of southern Thailand and

adjacent Myanmar or Burma and the types of
Yachts and ships available.
We all want to go to some tropical island
and the tropical islands are all
here in southern Thailand and adjacent
|
|
Myanmar
or Burma.
Going
for a live aboard trip in southern
Thailand and the area around this days is
for sure not tough and Spartan.

But there are important differences between a
one day live aboard trip in the Andaman Sea and a
live aboard trip over several days.
These include the
size and type of ship that'll work, the amount
of storage |

needed,
tolerance for each other in close
quarters, daily routines scuba
diving equipment and others.
Since it
might get boring in the evening on
the ship bring along some books and
other things to do.
Your live aboard cruiser is your own special island, immersed in nature, yet with the
comforts of home.

Even if you're anchored off somewhere. Since you are
on a ship--not a bus or plane try not to run on
schedule. |

Consider the
weather, the best weather for your live
aboard scuba diving trip in southern
Thailand is between end of October and
April.
When you go away
on a live aboard trip
you're out in the real world and at the
mercy of the weather. It puts you in tune with a life rhythm
more meaningful than the aircon control.
But maybe you need a little more
than the "partly cloudy" veneer of TV
forecasts.
Don't be stressed by not being able
to keep in touch by having the phone ring in paradise.

used for live aboard is within cellular |

range, but it might be the best
solution just switch off the phone once you step
onto the ship.
This wont work in Myanmar waters.
