Highlight

  • Racha Noi is a Manta cleaning station and we regular see those wonderful animals on our dives there. While Racha Yai has some amazing artificial reef structures and relatively shallow wreck diving
  • The first two dives at Racha Noi, with the final dive of the day at Racha Yai.
  • Local Dive Thailand is Phuket's most beloved scuba diving Phuket tour providers. We are one of only a few dive shops in Phuket who have our very own dive boat
Racha Noi is the only Phuket dive site where we regularly see oceanic manta rays. A cleaning station at the south tip regularly brings these amazing giants of the sea to visit us in the shallow waters of the many bays and dive sites the island supports. Racha Noi is also extremely diverse, with area’s of breathtaking coral growth and deeper places with hidden secrets among the massive granite boulders! Adding to this, Phuket is not exactly known for wreck or macro diving but if you happen to be on this dive tour you might change your mind, as one of our regularly visited dive sites at Racha Yai actually has 5 wrecks as well as a massive artificial reef of concrete cubes and other sunken treasures, these wrecks and artificial reef structures attract a large amount of fish and distinctly rare & unique macro life. The Perfect Dive Tour For Beginners And Experienced Divers Alike Racha Yai and Racha Noi are also amazing sites for training and diving courses, almost every dive site is a mix of deep and shallow sandy bottoms, corals, boulders and more. Advanced divers can see all of these things in a single dive, as well as marine life like Jenkins Whip Rays, Stone Fish, frogfish, Giant Brown Marble Groupers and again don’t forget Manta’s. If you have not dived Racha Yai and Racha Noi then you are missing out on some of Phuket’s top diving spots.
