Incredible Thailand

29/11/2014

Shrimp manicure : the very last chic...

This last trip to Thailand was an extraordinary one ! In three days, we got to see everything the Andaman Sea has to offer : whales spotted from the boat several times, walls of fish so thick they were hiding the reef from sight, current just strong enough to make it all fun... and the special guests too ! A whale shark came to say hi twice during our safety stop on Ko Chi, and the manta rays made their show both in Koh Surin and Koh Tachai !

Vibrant colors on the reef and fish in the blue...

Some of our guests were doing their first dives in tropical waters (hello Heather Lucky Charm ;) ), and two of them passed their Open Water on this trip (Congratulations Charlotte and Tarek !). What a way to start a diver's life...

Barracuda fireworks.

Once again, thanks to all of our guests of the week : Hubert, Peter, Fabienne, Tarek, Charlotte, Heather, Andrew, Bern and Maria. It was a pleasure sharing these magic moments with you all !

Hello big guys !

25/11/2014

We just came back from a very special week ! First af all, we got to dive the best of both worlds, with a full day in Richelieu Rock before going through the Burmese border, where we dove our very favorite sites !

Amazing colors on the reef.

And what was waiting for us there was just amazing : the very first whale shark of the season, spotted by Guillaume and his divers on North Twin ! This happens very early in the season, let's hope it's a good omen ;)

Did somebody say "fish everywhere" ?

Close encounters of the third kind...

But that wasn't the only guest of honor : on Shark Cave, a WHALE came to say hello, a few meters from the dingy ! Luckily, we had some Experts on board, and their adverted eye indentified the visitor as a milky whale. We kept our eyes wide open during the dive, but she only let us hear her lovely song...

Plankton fireworks at night

The strong currents did not discourage Alejandro, who completed his Open Water, nor Madlen, who became an Advanced Scuba Diver ! Congratulations !!

Around the table, from left to right, front to back : Camille, Elodie, Xavier, Stéphane, Nicolas, Anja, Madlen, Reiner, Guillaume, Marko, Christopher, Anaïs and Alejandro. Cheers guys !!

YES!

An (almost) private holiday in Burma

15/11/2014

This last trip saw us go with only a few privileged guests : seven of them and three of us guides, needless to say they felt like VIPs ! And the beautiful dives we did together only reinforced that feeling. With a break on an amazing deserted beach on a beautiful afternoon, it was definitely a perfect holiday !

Another hard day of work for Franck... Picture by Helen Fischer

Pretty as always, a spanish dancer and her shrimp.

Barracuda tornado on North Twin Pinnacle.

Iza took the occasion to get her Open Water, and even already got started with her Advanced : the night dive was just too appealing ;) Helen and Thomas took the whole Advanced course, and are now officially allowed to go all the way to 30m. Let's not forget our new nitrox divers, who, even if feeling the benefits of it, still enjoyed a nap in the hammock in between dives !

From left to right : Helen, Thomas, Iza, Bram, Carlos, Guillaume, James, Franck, Klaus and Anaïs. Thanks for the great week, hope to see you all again soon !

"4 jours parfaits"

"4 jours parfaits pour nous a bord de votre splendid MV Thai Sea. "

"I'm so glad I chose to dive with you, especially after seeing all the other boats with so many more divers. Amazing vegetarian food. I saw a whale shark, a turtle and and octopus, I am seriously satisfied"

the whole atmosphere was fantastic

15/11/2014

This diving excursion has been one of the highlights or my Thai and Burma travel.
A very diverse group of participants and an excellent smiling seahorse team. We had lots of fun and a great time.
The big differentiator between smiling seahorse and other operators is that you will have a very friendly and personal experience almost like friends in a team.
The dive sites and very diverse, food excellent, crew amazing, the whole atmosphere was fantastic.
Diving Burma, definitely a MUST DO and more than meeting expectations.
