Lotus Diving
About
Koh Phangan visitors find Lotus Diving, a diving centre on the island's northern side. The base sits at 57/6 moo7 Chaloklum, Koh Phangan, Surat Thani 84280, Thailand, within the village of Ban Chaloklam.
Divers rate Lotus Diving at 4.8 out of 5, a score drawn from 121 reviews submitted by past customers. Ban Chaloklam puts the centre close to Srithanu, while Thong Sala and Haad Rin lie further around the coast. Beginners are welcomed, so no prior certification is required to dive with the team. Its website, http://www.lotusdiving.com/, sets out the courses and trips on offer.
Koh Phangan sits in the Gulf of Thailand, where the southwest monsoon brings rain from around May to October and a drier, cooler stretch follows. Ferries and speedboats connect the island to the mainland, and the larger islands in the group have airports, so arrivals are straightforward.
Thai cooking leans on fish sauce, shrimp paste, coconut milk, lemongrass and chillies, with rice as the staple, and the island's restaurants serve those flavours after a day on the water. Coral reefs fringe much of the coastline, giving divers plenty to look at below the surface. Between dives, the beaches and inland trails around Chaloklum fill an afternoon.
