Koh Doc Mai Phuket

Koh Doc Mai has been a lucky dive destination for many divers over the years as many groups diving in Phuket have reported seeing the mighty pelagic giant – the whale shark here! Coming face to face with one of these aquatic leviathans is truly a unique experience and, for most, a once in a life time occurrence. Although you do have to have your luck with you to see one, around the months of June and July there is a noted increase in sightings here. So why not try your luck!
