30 years of experience
Sea Dragon Dive Center Khao Lak
Sea Dragon since 1993
PADI 5 STAR IDC CENTER
Sea Dragon Dive Center Khao Lak was established in 1993 to give both experienced and novice divers the opportunity to experience the incredible marine life of the Similan and Surin Islands.
We quickly obtained PADI recognition and established a reputation as the most trusted dive school in the region. We initially offered day trips and then moved on to liveaboard adventures where we could go further afield and offer our guests a more complete experience. We were the first company running liveaboard trips to the Similans!
To this day, we are still regarded as one of the best dive centers, with our trips often fully booked months in advance.
