Zeavola Phi Phi Earns PADI Five-Star Diving Credentials
The Zeavola resort, perched atop the sparkling sands, verdant slopes and pristine waters of Koh Phi Phi Don's northern tip at Laem Tonon Koh Phi Phi, is aiming to become one of Thailand's top dive destinations now it has earned its PADI Five-Star diving credentials.
Situated within the Phi Phi Marine National Park, a wide variety of dive sites, including the Bida Islands, are less than 20 minutes away.
"With such a wide range of options it's possible to create custom designed dive excursions,'' said General Manager, Florian Hallermann. "Our expert, experienced team use their local knowledge of tides, boat traffic and weather conditions to create solutions to meet every guest's personal goals. Dive sites ranging from 8-30 metres deep provide a mixture of topographies from sandy bays to coral wonderlands and dynamic rocky playgrounds ensuring divers a multitude of quality diving experiences.
"Imagine 20m deep walls and pinnacles covered in soft coral of every possible colour," Mr Hallermann said. "Pristine hard coral reefs fringe the coast, and when you least expect it, there will be a 2m-long leopard shark sleeping in the sand right in front of you or a blacktip reef shark zooming past! One guest and a frequent visitor to Phi Phi Island told me recently that he had been diving here for 13 years and continued to find things he'd never seen before. In the open blue guests might encounter schooling Trevally and other pelagic fish. Sightings of seahorses, ghost pipefish, colourful Nudibranchs, squat lobsters, spider crabs, and even frogfish are not uncommon."
