<\/strong>diving and it is not surprising given its great variety of marine life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">In addition, this beautiful island has 25 diving points, of which <strong>Chumphon Pinnacle is considered the best in the Gulf of Thailand, <\/strong>where depending on the season you can see whale sharks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Turtle Island is the meaning of Koh Tao in Thai, it belongs to the province of Surat Thani in southern Thailand and is located in the Gulf of Thailand along with its two older sisters Koh Phangan and Koh Samui.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this guide you will find all the information <strong>so you know how to choose the best diving course in Koh Tao<\/strong>, I also tell you about some of the best diving

Tao?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"precio\">1.- How much does it cost to dive in Koh Tao?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">On Koh Tao the diving schools have agreements and <strong>prices are the same or vary very little, especially for basic courses<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Diving course prices in Koh Tao:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Sea baptism<\/strong>: 2,500 bahts (69.80 euros) for 1 dive and 3,500 bahts (97.72 euros) for 2 dives;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Open Water<\/strong>: 11,000 bahts (307.13 euros);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Advanced diving<\/strong>: 10,000 bahts (279.21 euros);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rescue (rescue diver)<\/strong>: 10,000 bahts (279.21 euros);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>First Aid (react right)<\/strong>: 4,000 bahts (111.68 euros).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">In the case of professional diving courses, such as <strong>Diving Master<\/strong> and the course of <strong>Diving instructor,<\/strong> There may be a little more difference in price between schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">So, to evaluate that price variation, I recommend you take the following into account:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The duration of the course;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>if they include equipment and insurance;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the specialization courses it includes;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the number of dives.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\"

\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tipo-de-certificacion-padi-o-ssi\">2.- Type of diving certification in Koh Tao <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">There are 2 <strong>internationally recognized certifications<\/strong> in the world of diving, <strong>PADI and SSI<\/strong>, both with a long history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The certifications are the same, although with a slight difference in the name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">If you choose to do the Open Water with PADI and then want to go to another school that offers the SSI Advanced Diving or vice versa, you will not have any problem, <strong>they are compatible<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">If you are only interested in recreational diving, it will not make a difference to you, getting your scuba diving certification with one or the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">On the contrary, if what you are looking for is to do it professionally, I recommend that you investigate in depth the advantages of each one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ubicacion-de-la-escuela\">3.- Where to go diving in Koh Tao? (by areas of the island)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">In Koh Tao you can find schools almost all over the island, but there are 3 places where almost all of them are concentrated, including the best ones, below I will tell you which ones they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>1. Sairee Beach<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">This is the most popular beach in Koh Tao where it is located <strong>all the nightlife<\/strong> with bars on the beach where you can have a few drinks accompanied by the rhythm of the trendy DJ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">You will also find a varied offer of tattoo shops, <strong>massages with views of the spectacular sunsets<\/strong> on the sea of Koh Tao and restaurants with a varied local and international cuisine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mae-haad\"><em>2. Mae Haad<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The small town of <strong>Mae Haad is the main one on the island, <\/strong>where all the banks, main supermarkets, tourist offices and a wide variety of restaurants are located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Furthermore, it is <strong>the arrival point to the island <\/strong>through its main pier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"playa-chalok\"><em>3. Chalok Beach<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">This beach is located in the south of the island and has <strong>a more relaxed atmosphere.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Here you will also find a wide variety of restaurants and nightlife, but much more relaxed than in the popular Sairee.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/viajerosactivos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/GOPR0658.jpg\" alt=\"Chalok Beach - Thailand Diving Course\" class=\"wp-image-3705\" srcset=\"https:\/\/viajerosactivos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/GOPR0658.jpg 640w, https:\/\/viajerosactivos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/GOPR0658-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><code>Chalok Beach and Bay on Koh Tao<\/code><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The island is very small and <strong>can be traveled in a short time by motorcycle <\/strong>and you can even reach almost the entire island on foot, although with some steep climbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">I recommend staying somewhere near the diving school, especially if you plan to do early morning dives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>Some diving schools offer accommodation<\/strong> for an additional fee to the diving course at very competitive prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aguas-confinadas\">4.- Confined waters<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">If you have never tried scuba diving, either with a baptism or a previous diving qualification, <strong>Confined waters can be a good starting point.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Some diving schools do some of the initial Open Water diving classes in a pool so you can <strong>familiarize yourself with the equipment and learn to breathe without stress <\/strong>of being in the middle of the ocean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"idioma-del-curso-de-buceo\">5.- Language of the diving course<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">In Koh Tao there are about 90 diving schools spread across the island, due to lack of options it will not be. \ud83d\ude05<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The main advantage of there being so many diving schools is that it has allowed <strong>many specialize in offering different languages.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">In general, in any country you travel to, if the local language is not Spanish, you will have to take the course in English. But on Koh Tao <strong>There are a few schools with courses in Spanish so you can do it in your native language.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Some diving schools that offer <strong>diving courses in Spanish <\/strong>They do it only in high season or when they have teachers available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">On the other hand, the 5 diving schools that I recommend below do it all year round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cuidado-con-los-falsos-extras\">6.- Be careful with irrelevant extras<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">It is important when diving that the instructors are professional enough to respond if something happens and that they can also teach you what you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Safety comes first when diving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Therefore, I recommend that you <strong>choose a school that inspires confidence <\/strong>more than in the <strong>extras you can offer that have nothing to do with diving.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Also be careful with positive comments from \u201cother divers\u201d in Facebook groups, many are teachers hunting for students.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\"

temperatures for diving and other water activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But you must take into account the following 3 factors:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.- Climate<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The climate on Koh Tao is divided into 3 seasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Hot and dry<\/strong>: from February to May<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hot and windy<\/strong>: From May to October<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Wet<\/strong>: from October to February<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">In Koh Tao you can dive all year round, however, the least favorable months are October and especially in <strong>November, which is when the most rain is recorded<\/strong>, below you can see a table with the annual rainfall.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"715\" height=\"246\"

class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Additionally, in the months of October and November there may be cancellation of boat departures due to bad weather conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">In the rest of the rainy season it is normal for days to be sunny, <strong>with a few hours of rain <\/strong>and the rain is rarely persistent all day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"visibilidad-del-agua\">2.- Water Visibility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Of <strong>July to September<\/strong> is when the water visibility on Koh Tao <strong>She&#039;s in her best moment<\/strong>, reaching up to 30 meters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">But sometimes poor visibility is not as bad as it may seem and depending on what you want to see. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">They are precisely the months of low visibility, they are the months that <strong>you have a chance of
