I think what's being charged is in line with a standard price, you just get the feel good benefit of doing some volunteer work. I hear prices between 2400 - 3000 Baht being charged for the daily trip fee on normal days. Let's not get off topic on the negatives, I think we need to celebrate what few positives there are in the Pattaya diving scene. The fact the shops can actually pull together and do something together should be recognized as a step forward. If they can also start to do some buoy maintenance on the wrecks, make the clean up more often than once a year, and work harder on the new wreck projects Pattaya may yet become a place people come to dive instead of a place they dive because they are already there.
