Snorkel Dive
Snorkeling & Diving in Koh Chang, Thailand
The best diving season is between October, November, and April. The best sites are on the west and the southern tip of the island, between Koh Chang and Koh Kood. There you can see soft corals, anemones, myriad reef fish, and sometimes eel. Hin Luk Bat and Hin Lap both have coral seamounts. Further south, white-tip reef sharks can be found near Hin Phrai Nam.
In addition, there are two wreck dive sites. The Koh Chang Wreck is a Thai warship sunk by the French navy in 1941. The wreck is only 15 metres deep in the Salakphet Bay on the southern tip of the island. The other wreck is the Pak One Wreck which sank after hitting a coral reef in August 1996 on its way to Vietnam. It resurfaced almost 8 years later. The 900-ton sunken tanker posed a danger to ships on international waters. The Royal Thai Navy drained off its 600 tonnes of liquefied petroleum gas and resank it between Koh Chang and Koh Samet. It now lies horizontally in 35-meter deep waters.
There are a few diving centres on Koh Chang such as the Ploy Scuba Diving in Bang Bao. Following the standards of the sister centre in Koh Samet, this is the premier diving operator in Eastern Thailand.
The Dolphin Divers at the Amari Emerald Cove Resort offers free trial in the resort’s swimming pool. For those who prefer fun dives without a long boat trip Dolphin Divers operate speedboats from the resort’s beach to the nearest dive sites in only 15 minutes. Others include the Koh Chang Dive Centre on Kai Bae Beach, Paradise Scuba Divers at the Klong Prao Resort and Koh Chang Divers on Had Sai Khao (White Sand Beach).
The Dive Adventure Koh Chang has claimed to be the only PADI 5 star IDC center in Koh Chang with its multilingual instructors and divemasters. It is advantageously located at Bang Bao fishing village with it own resort.
A few dive centres operate out of Koh Mak. Boat trips to various dive sites range from 1,800 to 3,000 Baht depending on distances, and typically include two dives, full equipment, transportation, food, drinks and a divemaster.

Is it possible to snorkel in Phuket, Thailand, during Sept/Oct?
I'm aware it's the monsoon season then....but is snorkeling/diving feasible then?
Yes, of course it's possible. The only thing is that the water will be cloudier and maybe more rough than the "high season." But of course during the "low season," which includes Sept/Oct, hotels, guesthouses, tours, will be at nearly a 50% discount, compared to the high season.
For example, the low season (monsoon season) starts May 15. I went down to Koh Muk around May 25th and got 50% discount on my bungalow. Without asking, the owner said I can stay an extra day for free for every day I pay for. I stayed four nights, which included two free nights and the other two nights 50% off, just because it was technically the low season and there was hardly anybody staying there. Ended up being a 75% discount, if my math is right. I went snorkeling and the water was still very clear. And there were fewer people because of the "low season" stigma.
If money is at all an issue, don't be afraid of the low season. The great thing is that prices are lower and there will be fewer and smaller crowds. Everybody wants to come during the high season, but in my opinion, the huge crowds and inflated prices aren't worth the slight benefits.
Hope that helps
