Hello, my friend and I are interested in taking daytrips to the Similan islands from Khao Lak but I haven't heard anything about Khao Lak and am looking for some info. I am currently living in Chiang mai and everyone I speak with about the south has been to Ko Tao or Ko Samui. I am a very new diver (3 dives with resort/pool lessons over the past few years) and plan to get my open water cert in Ko Phi Phi before my friend arrives. I may also go to Ko Tao to dive a bit before my friend arrives as I have heard it has some easy dive spots (although can be very busy). My friend is an experienced diver. My questions are, is taking daytrips from Khao Lak the best option for us? We don't want to do a liveaboard and would only like to dive two days. Secondly, what is Khao Lak like? Families, backpackers, honeymooners? We are two 30ish women and would like to find a relaxing spot but would like a bit of nightlife and not somewhere full of families. Also, how would we get to Khao Lak? We plan to be in Siem Reap before we head south so we could fly from Siem Reap or travel from Bangkok.
Thanks for your help!
