Around Christmas 2005 I went one a 3 day/4 night dive trip to the Similan Islands. It was incredible! I was surprised to see the reefs in such good shape after the tsunami. I’d read that they were okay, but didn’t quite believe it until I saw them for myself.
I went with a dive company called Santana, and would definitely use them again.
The rest of my trip in Thailand was quite nice too! Just looking at my photos from the trip makes me want to go back. Maybe next Christmas…

It was my first scuba experience – I took the Padi Open Water and Advanced Open Water. Since I live pretty much as far away from an ocean as one could possibly get it was like being on a totally different planet. I highly recommend Siam Divers on Ko Tao.
