Thailand: The Kingdom Beneath the Sea

Lots of people, especially travelers to seaside tropical Asia, think they’d like to try diving. But most never do. This is mostly because they share a number of misconceptions about the sport. This book includes stories designed to convey some of the variety and flavor of scuba diving in these waters while making the point that nearly anyone can enjoy sport diving.  “Learn to Dive” for more details.

Accompanying descriptions of dive areas in the Gulf of Thailand and the Andaman Sea are now outdated.
