She operates amongst the protected waters of the Similan Islands making this the most "friendly" liveaboard to be found...seasickness is rare. From only 12,000 Baht per person.

New Wreck Discovered, Racha Yai, Phuket, Thailand
A new wreck was discovered this month at Racha Yai Island, Phuket, Thailand. We believe it was purpose sunk. This will make an ideal training ground for the Wreck Adventure Dive or for Wreck Speciality as it sits on the East side of the Island in about 20 - 25m of water and can be used for penetration dives. After only one month Scuba Cat Diving, Phuket, Thailand is bored with calling it the NEW WRECK.

Compared with most "dive centers" in Thailand (a lot of them is just a website - a "Virtual Dive Company") - Scuba Cat owns their own fleet of diving boats and have been in operation since 1994. If you do a Course or a Dive Career Package with us, all your dives will be from one of our own dive boats, not "we got to do a beach dive, 'cause it is not enough students" or from a "last minute rented long tail boat, 'cause all the other boats are full".
