Pattaya Dive Sites Information
 Modern
dive tourism began in Thailand at Pattaya 40 years a go, when resting
B52 bomber aircrew from a nearby US Vietnam war airbase discovered
a small sleepy fishing village located on a palm fringed tropical
beach just 150km south of Bangkok.
GIs returning with friends as well as adventure travellers triggered
a huge boom in hotel and resort develpment making it the most developed
beach resort in Thailand and is now famous world wide for its vibrant
nightlife.
Pattaya is Thailand’s premier wreck & technical diving
destination with diving activities planned throughout the year.
Popular local dive sites include several large shipwrecks, shallow
coral reef dives at offshore islands, and technical diver training
at the deepest point in the Gulf of Siam.
