During early September 2010 we’re running an exciting back to back combination of technical diving trips, combining wreck diving and cave diving.

First we’ll be making a three day technical diving charter aboard the MV Trident departing from Koh Tao on 10th September. We’ll visit the impressive wreck of the HTMS Phangan (Thai Military vessel) in 60M of blue water(29C), plus dive the nearby coastal tanker. We’ll be making two dives per day, supporting both open circuit and ccr divers. Trimix and nitrox are blended on board.

Returning to Koh Tao after three days of wreck diving, we’ll then transfer to the mainland for a 2 day cave diving expedition visiting nearby Khao Sok National Park. The park has some of the most spectacular scenery in Thailand – limestone cliffs, dense jungle and an enormous lake.

The giant 165 sq kilometer lake was formed 30 years ago by the construction of a river dam, flooding several villages, large areas of valley and forest and many limestone cave systems.
During the two days we’ll dive our favorite sites of Temple Cave, Par Daeng (Red Cave) and ‘Craig’s  Cave’. There’s also an opportunity to get some depth in a dive we refer to as ‘The Forest dive’, plus if the group are up for it, we can dedicate some time to exploring new cave dive sites.
