Porcupine fish friend is back

Porcupine fish: meet our residential ones

Come diving with Andaman Dive Adventure to Koh Ha Laguna and meet our residential porcupine fish. We actually have a few and some of our divers have named some Eric and Steven. Especial great hits with the children for snorkeling and for the 8-10 years old PADI Bubblemaker diver students. But we also have very experienced divers coming back every year from Hong Kong, UK and the Netherlands to see their porcupine friends.

Meet our porcupine fish yourself on your trip to Koh Ha Islands.

PADI Course Director Lisa Bier with PADI IDC candidate Linn

This was our first PADI IDC with the new online presentations. We loved the new set up and how it makes the classroom presentations more effective, shorter and reserve more time for real practice. Our next PADI IDC (Instructor Development Course) will be in January 2020. Please email us on info@andamandiveadventure.com if you are interested or have a look at www.diveinstructorthailand.com

Normally manta’s start visiting Hin Daeng and Hin Muang from about end of November, but they are early back this year. So far we have seen 3 at the same time.
This season we have the opportunity to go to Hin Daeng and Hin Muang every other day (weather and currents permitting ofcourse) by fast catamaran boat for 3 dives. The dive sites will usually be Hin Daeng, Hin Muang and a dive site at Koh Ha on the way back. Start time for this trip is 7 AM and usually the boat is back around 3.30 PM.

Divers from Andaman Dive Adventure Lanta see whale sharks around Koh Ha and Hin Daeng

Whale shark early around Koh Lanta

Every year whale sharks follow a path between Malaysia past Koh Ha, Hin Daeng and the Bidas to the Similan Islands. Normally divers see them in these area’s from end of November until end of February. This year though we have had almost every day sightings at Koh Ha, Hin Daeng , Bidas and Koh Rok for the last 2 weeks already. In actuality we have had whalesharks pretty much most of our green season.
