About Blue Guru Dive Centre

The Surin Islands, a hidden gem in the Andaman Sea, offer an absolutely amazing experience for those who seek adventure and tranquility. The islands are known for their stunning beauty, both above and beneath the sea level. The trip to these islands can be booked through Blue Guru, a company known for its profound information and excellent organization. They are quick to respond to any queries via email and ensure that their customers are well taken care of throughout the trip. The staff is friendly, the food is great, and the overall experience is one that leaves a lasting impression.

Christopher Williams, a representative of Blue Guru, is known for his helpful and thoughtful approach when it comes to organizing trips to these unspoilt islands. He provides wide-ranging advice on Thailand and ensures that the three-day trip to the Surin Islands is a memorable one, especially for those who enjoy snorkeling.

Blue Guru also offers diving trips, although some travelers have found them to be overpriced compared to other diving experiences around the world. The company offers private dives with a maximum of four people, which is a unique experience. The quality of the equipment provided by Blue Guru is commendable, with new Oceanic BCDs, tidy regs, and nice shortie wet suits. However, some divers have found the dive sites to be below average, with not much to see on the wreck and the reef dive being just a few lumps in otherwise barren sand.

The Surin Islands and the diving at Richilieu rock are highly recommended by those who have experienced it. The biodiversity at both these locations is stunning. Blue Guru takes great care to ensure a successful trip, arranging all necessary transportation and lodging. The company is quick to respond to any queries and the dive guides are known to be wonderful. The trip often ends with the travelers and the guides becoming friends, sharing many laughs together.

Accommodation at Mr. Chuoi's on Kho Phra Thong is a popular choice among travelers. The cabins are basic but have everything one needs. Mr. Chuoi is known to be a funny character and his place is loved by all. The island is home to several resorts, all within a few minutes walk on the beach from each other. They all offer fantastic food and a magical experience. However, travelers are advised to bring plenty of sunscreen, bug spray, and cash as there is no place to buy these on Kho Phra Thong and there is also no ATM or bank.

Mr. Chuoi's Bar and Hut is another terrific experience for those who love relaxed simplicity, fantastic beaches, exquisite Thai food, cold beer, and great company. The children are safe and never bored, even enjoying the experience a couple of days of warm, drenching monsoonal rains, as the stay is just outside 'high season'. The journey to and from Phuket is part of the adventure.

Blue Guru also offers diving experiences at Koh Phra Thong and Richelieu Rock. The staff is friendly, professional, helpful, and good fun. They take care of everything, from equipment to food and drinks. The coral and fish at these locations are a sight to behold. However, some travelers have had disappointing experiences with Blue Guru, especially when it comes to snorkeling trips to Surin. Some have found that the trips they had booked and paid for in advance were cancelled at the last minute due to various reasons. Therefore, it is recommended to book these trips from places where there is more competition.

Despite these occasional hiccups, the Surin Islands and the surrounding areas offer an unforgettable experience for those who seek adventure and tranquility. Whether it's diving, snorkeling, or simply enjoying the quietness of nature, these islands are a must-visit.
