Course overview

Already certified? Explore Thailand's Phi Phi Islands on guided PADI fun dives, diving the limestone walls, coral gardens and swim-throughs of the marine park with a local guide. Reefs drop to around 30 metres and you can expect blacktip reef sharks, turtles and the occasional leopard shark, so every dive shows why Phi Phi is one of the Andaman Sea's signature sites. No course, just diving.
