Snorkel, swim and dive in Sattaya reef, home to spinner dolphins who congregate daily, and want to play with the divers.
See Giant turtles and possibly Dugongs at Marsa Shooner and see some amazing fish life at submerged reefs Shab-ab Maksur, Claudia and Malchi.
This is a relatively shallow trip with most of the action happening above 18m, it's a great chance for new divers to get some experience or seasoned divers to get long dives on pristine reefs playing with cameras.
