I'm looking for a suggestion for diving in South East Asia in the week or two after Christmas. We'll be travelling from Europe back to home in Australia and want to stop and dive, and also enjoy some other activities (culture, national parks etc).
We both have 120+ dives and have dived between us at Komodo, Galapagos, the Great Barrier Reef, Ningaloo etc so our standards are reasonably high. We like to see sharks and other big creatures. We like liveaboards (but we're a bit prone to seasickness).
We were considering Thailand because it's well connected to Australia and Europe, and it's a good time of year with regard to weather, but it seems between the crowds and the conditions it may not be the best choice, even with a few day liveaboard in the Similans. (Correct me if I'm wrong here.)
What else should we consider? Maldives? Where else?
