Snorkelling in Karon or someplace around Patong


Guest

Recommended Posts

Hi friends,

 

 

 

Want to do some snorkelling when I am there again in Phuket.

 

 

 

Any suggestions for snorkelling in and around the island - around Karon and Patong. Don't plan to go out shore to some remote island.

 

 

 

Would be good if you can quote prices for the flippers and such.

 

 

 

Cheers!!

hi singbond

 

sure you will reconsider changing your plans of a visit to patong by a couple of weeks?.

 

could be fun to get together and go snorkelling together one day.

 

will get in touch the weekend with a story which might interest you.

Singbond,

 

 

 

When are you going?

 

 

 

Be very careful during the rainy season. Karon in particular sees several foreigners die every year.

 

 

 

If the waves are low, there is an OK reef on the North end of Kata Yai beach. OK being a relative term. I used to take students to do night dives on the reef. During the day you should be able to find a moray eel or two, lots of sergeant majors, banner fish, maybe even a lionfish.

 

 

 

As I said time of year makes a huge difference.
