The daily dive-trips goes to the many small islands in the Pattaya Bay. The Paradise Boat takes 45 to 90 minutes to reach the islands. Nearly all dive sites are flat sloping coral-reefs or pinnacles. This is the reason that these places are perfect for beginners and for instruction. The visibility is around 10-20 meters.
Monday the boat goes to Koh Rin/North Rock where there is a good chance of seeing small nurse sharks since they hide under the beautiful coral. Thursday the schedule says Koh Sak and Koh Kroc. The main attraction here is the turtles and great drift dives at Koh Kroc. Saturday the boat goes to Koh Man Wichai where there are turtles, small sharks and a wall to dive along.
Pattaya also have great wrecks, most famous is The Hardeep and The Krahm. Paradise Scuba Divers visit the wrecks four times a week, often by doing one dive on the wreck and one on a nearby coral reef. Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday is “Wreck-days” – but if customers prefer two coral dives that can be arranged on these days without a problem.
A normal day begins around 8 am. Where the customers picked up in their hotel and brought to the shop. There the equipment is selected and then it is a 5 minute drive to the pier where our boat is waiting. Then it is time for some coffee, thee or hot chocolate and something sweet.
The Paradise Boat is a roomy boat with a double deck, and the safety standard and the comfort is high. For non divers and for the persons who snorkel the big top deck invites for a sunbath. After the dive there is lunch (excellent Thai food, which is freshly cooked on the boat - and not to spicy) and after a break it is times to reach the next dive site for the second dive.
After the diving there is time for a refreshments and signing of logbooks in the shop before the customers are taken back to their hotel.
It says a lot about Paradise Scuba Divers that they are shop that has the highest percentage of returning customers of all dive shops in Pattaya.
