2. What You Should Pack
Since we’ve got your diving gear covered, your packing list can focus on comfort and convenience.
Clothing
- Swimwear: Pack several sets—you’ll be using them daily.
- Light, breathable clothing: Perfect for Thailand’s tropical climate, such as t-shirts, shorts, and sundresses.
- A light hoodie or jacket: Great for cool evenings or breezy boat rides.
- Flip-flops: Easy to slip on and off for beach days.
- Comfortable shoes for riding a motorbike: This is a must! While flip-flops are tempting, they don’t protect your feet. A small motorbike crash in flip-flops can leave you with injuries that might stop you from diving for weeks. Bring closed toe sandals or sneakers.
Accessories

- Quick-dry towel: Compact and perfect for dive days.
- Dry bag: Keep your phone, wallet, and other essentials safe on the boat.
- Hat and sunglasses: Must-haves for the strong tropical sun!
Documents and Gadgets
- Diving certification card (if applicable): Bring proof of your previous certifications if continuing your education. Alternatively, ensure your license is accessible online for verification.
- Travel insurance: Ensure your policy covers diving activities!
- GoPro or underwater camera: Capture your underwater adventures.
- Universal adapter and power bank: Stay connected and charged.
