Hi everyone hope you all had a great new year, we did here in Koh Samui with lots of fireworks on the beach. Now that the weather has calmed down we are back to diving once again. Over the new year celebration the weather has been stormy and wet with a few floods here in Samui, now its blue skys and calm seas. First i would like to congratulate Wei from Singapore and Martin from Denmark for completing there Padi Open water on new years eve and not in ideal condition's as the visibility was about 6-8 meters, waves about 1 meter.

  Yesterday was our first day out on the boat, the trip out was nice and calm. We had 12 people on the boat 2 from Lamai and 10 from Bophut Diving School (www.bophutdivingshool.com). With a mix bunch of divers, Eric had four discover scuba diver so we drop them of at Sai Ree Beach in Koh Tao and the rest of us went to a dive site called Pee Wee about 2 km away. We all got ready buddy checks done and ready to go, once in we swam to the buoy line and slowly descent down. It them came obvious because of the storms the visibility was down to about 3 meters boo, we carried on down to 18 meters and did a 40 minute dive.
 Even with the poor visibility the customers still enjoyed the dive as it was great to get back in the water. The second dive was at Twins next to Nangyuan Island and the visibility was a little bit better.

Tomorrow which is Friday we have a full boat to Koh Tao, so fingers crossed the visibility should be getting better and on Saturday full boat again. The sea conditions are looking a lot better to with waves about 0.5 of a metre.

So stay tuned for further updates on the conditions
