Scuba diving experience
Eak was a great instructor and made the trip truly enjoyable!! :)

Great experience
Great experience. Really fun
via Tripadvisor
Highly Recommend!
We had an incredible experience with our dive master, Ekk! As a family of five with three teenagers, we definitely kept him on his toes, but he handled everything with patience, professionalism, and a great sense of humor. He made us all feel safe, confident, and relaxed throughout the entire day. What really made the experience unforgettable were the amazing underwater photos and videos he captured. They are absolutely beautiful and are memories our family will treasure for years to come. Thank you, Ekk, for making our scuba adventure so special, we couldn’t have asked for a better dive master. Highly recommend!

Great diving experience!
dive master Ekk is super professional and a very experienced teacher. he made me feel very safe despite it being my first time diving. highly recommend booking 3 dives no matter your level of diving skill. it’s great as a refresher or as an intro to diving. the whole experience is very safe and professionally conducted with delicious food. do pay for underwater photography as the results are amazing! Everything is taken care for you when you book. Would recommend families with older kids or anyone with an interest in diving.

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Phuket Scuba Diving: Racha Island Or Maiton Island For All Levels: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phuket.
How much does Phuket Scuba Diving: Racha Island Or Maiton Island For All Levels cost?
+
Prices start at $3350 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 Phuket Scuba Diving: Racha Island Or Maiton Island For All Levels take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 Phuket Scuba Diving: Racha Island Or Maiton Island For All Levels worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 90 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Phuket, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Phuket Scuba Diving: Racha Island Or Maiton Island For All Levels?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Phuket Scuba Diving: Racha Island Or Maiton Island For All Levels suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Phuket Scuba Diving: Racha Island Or Maiton Island For All Levels?
+
Around 31 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Phuket Scuba Diving: Racha Island Or Maiton Island For All Levels 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.
