In December 2013 Andaman Dive Adventure received their new dive boat after many months of constructing it especially for diving. Here are some pictures of the finished product. Now experienced divers and Padi student divers can start diving from Andaman dive adventures own dive boat to local dive sites from Koh Lanta ! Come and join us !
Andaman dive adventure on Koh Lanta congratulates Astrid and John, Padi deep specialty divers from Germany and Holland with their Padi certification. They dived their deepest dive at Koh Ha.
Manta’s have been seen by divers on Hin Daeng and Hin Muang since November, but since a week Andaman dive adventures divers have seen multiple manta’s on these 2 top 10 World Class dive sites. Even as many as 5 in one dive ! Especially (as in Courtney’s video) diving with the manta’s flying over you, almost touching you and actively engaging with divers is new for divers from Koh Lanta. Come and enjoy Christmas with Andaman Dive Adventure and dive with the manta’s ! Thanks to Ralf Kaulbersch for the excellent picture and to Martyn and Courtney for the nice video.
Please divers: if you see any manta’s, send pictures, videos and descriptions to: www.mantamatcher.org. We can help to protect and research the manta’s better with their help.
After many non diving years, Trevor decided this year he is becoming a diver. Andaman dive adventure on Koh Lanta is proud to be teaching Trevor to dive. He started with his Padi diving course together with Matthias and Steve in the pool of Lanta Island Resort. Thanks to Per for the nice pictures.
Andaman dive adventure Lanta had the pleasure to take youngsters: Nikky and Tijn diving for their Padi bubble maker dive course. Although they were only 8 and 10 years of age, these brother and sister managed to almost do everything for diving by themselves ! Including deflating their bcd, hand signals, clearing their mask, breathing and finding back their regulator on the surface ! Excellent ! ADA is looking forward for their (oke mum and dad can join you as well…) return for their Padi junior open water diving course. Just 2 more years ! Tip for Dutch parents: there is a cartoon on Dutch TV about how to give hand signals under water and how to dive…Thanks to Adrian for the brilliant picture.

Right now Andaman Dive Adventure is building the new fast big boat in Krabi. The boat will be a big diving boat, so giving a lot of space to divers and Padi dive students for seating and moving around. Also a lot of convenience: changing area, dry area, roof top with sunshine or shade. The choice is yours. Although it is a big boat, we are planning to go out with less divers and snorkelers then our license, thus giving a more luxurious feeling. Furthermore (in contrary to most big boats), we added a bit more speed, with 2 big engines inside. Because she has inboard engines, the boat is much more quiet then a speedboat and will make water entries and exits much easier. Come and join us diving this season on our new diving boat, with our new Cressi dive gear, dive tanks and dive compressor.
As some of you have seen on our Facebook site, we are now finished with our beach dive shop at Klong Dao on Koh Lanta. Learning to dive and fun diving in Thailand never was this easy: with confined and open water straight from the beach and pool and classroom behind the Padi dive resort center. Now you don’t have the leave the beach anymore. When the boat is finished, she will also be laying at ADA’s Klong Dao beach location, just in front of Lanta Island Resort.
