Comments The only difficulty was being picked up at the airport in Phuket. Somehow they thought that we were arriving at the international terminal like everybody else on the boat even though we had sent them our itinerary. Fortunately we had the phone number for the local Aggressor office; a phone call to the office corrected the problem.
Diving in Thailand was the only place where we would see one school of fish (or squadron of rays) through another school of fish.
Since we do not eat seafood or meat we were served lots of tofu which we were getting tired of by the end of the week; the food was not bad, but it did get repetitious.

Overall rating for UWP's 5 stars Shore Facilities N/A
UW Photo Comments The facilities for photographers were fine. There were plenty of fresh water rinse buckets, compressed air to dry off cases before opening, and LOTS of outlets to recharge your batteries between dives, and plenty of space so you were not crowding each other.
