Plongée à Koh Tao — Thailand
Koh Tao certifies more divers than almost anywhere on Earth — and for good reason. The calm, warm waters and gentle reef topography make it ideal for learning, while sites like Chumphon Pinnacle and Sail Rock deliver enough whale shark encounters to keep experienced divers coming back. All at backpacker prices.
