Ranong: the gateway to diving in paradise...
Established in the Thai border town of Ranong, this was an obvious choice for the headquarters of The Smiling Seahorse Dive Center. Setting up shop in this little known place allows us quick and easy access to the best dive sites in both Burma and Thailand.
Where both countries hold their treasures, Burma should be the next diving destination on your radar should you wish to have the increasingly rare treat of having an entire dive site all to yourself. Known as the experts of diving in Myanmar, The Smiling Seahorse has developed four cruise formats to choose from to tick all the boxes on any diver's holiday checklist, no matter the ideal time frame or budget.
The Mergui Archipelago is still mostly unheard of in the international tourism community and can offer you a feeling of exclusivity during your dive holiday unmatched by any other. One of the reasons we love diving in Myanmar so much is the plethora of sea life we encounter at the endless pinnacles of the Mergui Archipelago where you wont see another dive boat for days. Even the hardest to please divers will be awe-inspired by the large pelagic whale sharks and manta rays and the most discerning eyes will be excited by the rich variety of macro life from seahorses to ghost pipefish and harlequin shrimp.
Until the ’90s the Burma banks were only known to some fishermen and boat captains but their exact location remained undocumented. Pioneering scuba divers at this time couldn’t quell their curiosity and began visiting these sites more regularly. Before then, tourism was not widely practiced in Myanmar but with the surrounding countries becoming more and more trodden by foreign visitors, it became an increasingly popular destination for those seeking an exclusive diving experience...
