    About this experience

    Racha Yai offers some of the best local year around dive-sites but the visibility varies as to the season. On the north end of the island are two beautiful little bays Homerun Bay and Siam Bay famous for their deep clear water and colorful coral formations. Both of them have almost swimming pool features as they gradually drop to a depth of 20-25 metres onto a sandy seabed, providing many opportunities for both snorkeling and scuba diving. The best diving is off the east coast at Bay 1 to 5. The current allows a gentle drift dive along a sloping rocky face that is covered with an amazing array of hard corals and the nutrient rich water draws large schools of tropical fish. Around Racha Yai, some large rays have been seen. Leopard sharks and just recently Blacktip reef sharks have made an appearance again.

    My first ever Scuba session perfectly executed by Scubadeep

    I stumbled upon Scubadeep on my walk at Phuket beach. My fondness for water started two years back when I did surfing for the first time, which is when I started learning swimming too. Up until that night, I still couldn't swim properly but who doesn't want to do scuba diving, right? I met J at the Scubadeep office and he explained the entire details of the package and all the pre-requisites One such key thing was keeping an 18 hours gap between scuba dive and flight to maintain pressure differences. J also did accept our bargain of 8600 TBH for two! Thanks J, you're still a good German even if your agreed to our bargain! :p They arranged transport back & forth from the hotel to the pier. At the pier we met Chris, our instructor who instantly took charge of us. Chris was phenomenal. A great instructor but even a greater person. He was very clear with his instructions and patient with us. We did two dives with him where he took such a great care of us, made us feel so safe and when not diving, made us laugh a lot. The ship was good too. There were lot many other schools & students on it but we had our exclusive instructor who was with us all the time. The diving spots were also nice although, as a fist time diver I can't give really give verdict if this was the best or not but there were plenty of corals and fishes at each spots. We were also given option to do snorkeling before the end of the session. Overall, if you're looking to either get a great welcome experience to Scuba diving in Phuket or looking to do your 50th dive, Scubadeep is the place. Thanks to the Scubadeep team. See ya again.

    Response from the operator: Wow — thank you so much for sharing such an amazing and detailed review! We absolutely loved reading about your journey into the world of water sports and scuba diving. It’s especially inspiring to hear that despite still learning to swim, you took the leap and experienced scuba diving with us — that’s incredibly brave and exciting!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation! We’re thrilled to hear you had such a wonderful diving experience with Alex and the Scubadeep team. We’ll be sure to pass your compliments along to Alex,

    Discover Scuba Diving 3 Dives Racha Islands: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phuket.

    How much does Discover Scuba Diving 3 Dives Racha Islands cost?

    +

    Prices start at $5700 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Phuket usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Discover Scuba Diving 3 Dives Racha Islands take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Phuket is not rushed.

    Is Discover Scuba Diving 3 Dives Racha Islands worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 96 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Phuket, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Discover Scuba Diving 3 Dives Racha Islands?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Discover Scuba Diving 3 Dives Racha Islands suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Discover Scuba Diving 3 Dives Racha Islands?

    +

    Around 34 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Phuket can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Phuket and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Discover Scuba Diving 3 Dives Racha Islands start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Phuket within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Phuket?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Phuket experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Southern Flavors Phuket Food Tour with 15+ Tastings, James Bond Island by Big Boat w/ Sea Cave Canoeing and Lunch, Phang Nga Bay Canoeing & James Bond Island Tour from Phuket. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Phuket?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Phuket?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
