Tailandda sho'ng'in - Diving in Thailand

Tailandning joylashuvi
Tailandning Andaman dengizi va Tailand ko'rfazini ko'rsatadigan mintaqaviy xaritasi

Tailand dunyodagi eng yaxshi va eng chiroyli plyajlar va orollarga ega, ular toza suv va ajoyib mercan bilan o'ralgan.

Tailandda sho'ng'in qilish uchun yilning eng yaxshi vaqti oktyabr va iyun oylari orasida bo'lishiga qaramay, deyarli yilning istalgan kunida sho'ng'ish mumkin. Tailand dunyodagi sho'ng'in va sho'ng'in bilan shug'ullanish uchun eng xavfsiz joylardan biri hisoblanganligi sababli, bu o'yin-kulgini sinab ko'rmoqchi bo'lganlar uchun juda mos keladi.

Ba'zi joylarda dengizning ko'rinishi 30 m gacha. Suv osti tog'lari, marjon bog'lari, dengiz osti qoyalari, qattiq va yumshoq mercan, kit akulalari, kumush uchi akulalari, manta nurlari va hatto cho'kib ketgan jangovar kemalarning ajoyib manzaralaridan bahramand bo'lish mumkin.

Tarix

Tailandda sho'ng'in Vetnam urushi paytida Amerika dengiz flotining muhrlari bilan boshlangan. Tailandning birinchi sho'ng'in do'koni 1977 yilda Pattayada ochilgan va ko'p o'tmay, Tailandda ham, Tailandda ham chet elliklar uchun sho'ng'in mashhurligi portladi.

Pattayadan keyin ko'p sonli kelgan g'avvoslarni ko'rish uchun navbatdagi manzil Pxuket edi va ular tez orada Similan orollari va Andaman dengizining qolgan qismiga sho'ng'ish uchun ketayotgan edilar. Aslida, Similan orollari dunyodagi eng yaxshi sho'ng'in joylaridan biri sifatida qayd etilgan. Bugungi kunda sho'ng'in butun Andaman dengizida, shu jumladan, nisbatan noma'lum Tarutao va Surin orollarida mashhur.

Tailand ko'rfazining narigi tomonida Ko Tao (Turtle Island) orolda 20 dan ortiq sho'ng'in markazlari bo'lgan Tailandning asosiy sho'ng'in joyiga aylandi.

Statistika

Similan orollari g'avvoslarni rag'batlantirishning eng yaxshi namunasidir, shu bilan birga ekologik barqarorlikni saqlaydi va flora va faunaning biologik xilma-xilligini saqlaydi.

Tailandda qachon sho'ng'in qilish kerak

Andaman dengiziga sho'ng'ish uchun eng yaxshi vaqt - noyabrdan aprelgacha, yana iyundan sentyabrgacha va Tailand ko'rfazida maydan sentyabrgacha. Ammo butun yil davomida sho'ng'in qilish yaxshi.

Belgilangan joylar

Tailand g'arbiy qismida Andaman dengizidan va sharqda Tailand ko'rfazidan iborat ikki xil sho'ng'in zonasiga ega.

Andaman dengizi

Andamanga sho'ng'ish uchun yilning eng yaxshi davri oktyabrdan aprelgacha. Andamanning ko'rinishi Tailand ko'rfaziga o'xshaydi, ammo bu hudud yanada keng marjon riflariga ega. Janubi-g'arbiy musson ta'siri tufayli offshor orollarni o'rab turgan riflarning aksariyati orollarning sharqiy qismida joylashgan.

Ko Lipe

Tarutao milliy bog'i Osiyoning eng qadimgi dengiz parklaridan biri bo'lib, riflar juda yaxshi holatda. Sho'ng'in markazlari yaqinida 30 dan ortiq odam yashamaydigan orollar va yuzlab riflar va Tailandda joylashgan eng yaxshi ko'rinish mavjud.

Ko Lipe atrofidagi riflar asosan buzilmagan; 2004 yilgi tsunami bu erda ozgina ta'sir ko'rsatdi. Ko Lipe atrofida Tailandning eng yaxshi riflari mavjud.

Bu erdagi oqimlar asosan g'ayritabiiydir, ya'ni oyning ma'lum vaqtlarida biz kuchli oqimlarni boshdan kechiramiz, ba'zida esa umuman yo'q. sho'ng'in uchun har doim yaxshi joyni topishingiz mumkin, ammo sho'ng'in joylarining eng keng tanlovi yarim oydan keyin oyiga ikki marta mavjud.

Katta narsalar: - Siz ko'plab akula, kit akula va manta nurlarini ko'rishingiz mumkin. Katta yigitlarni tomosha qilish, ehtimol dengiz parki chetidagi, chuqurroq suvga yaqin joylarda bo'ladi. Eng yaxshi imkoniyat uchun 8 Mile Rock, Stonehenge yoki Ko Pung-ga tashrif buyurishga harakat qiling.

Also butterfly fish, blue-ringed angelfish, jacks, barracudas and occasional whale sharks.

Tanote Bay

Torpedo Wreck

Location: An hour north of Ko Tao
Topografiya:Torpedo is the name of the ship, and not the way it ended up on the bottom. She is a 70 m Japanese cargo vessel sitting upright after having sank in the mid 1970s. There are three areas of penetration however visibility is usually poor at depth. The deck is at 45 m and the cargo holds are still full of teak logs, with a few scattered on the seabed.
Chuqurlik: 45-55 m. (Due to the depths involved this has been classified a technical dive for experienced divers only.)

Twin Pinnacles (Twins)

Location: Far side of Ko Nang Yuan
Ko'nikmalar: This is an ideal site for beginners due to its depth and ease of navigation.
Topografiya: Rocky reef embedded into white sand
Chuqurlik: 6-18 m
Dengiz hayoti: Among the hard corals are big grouper, white-eyed moray eels, pink anemone, clown fish, blue spotted rays, wrasse, and black and white sergeant major fish. A friendly pair of rare saddleback clownfish can be found to the western side of the larger of the Twins.

Unicorn Wreck (Dog Food Wreck)

Unicorn is a 60 m cargo vessel, which, according to local lore, was sunk on purpose in 1989 for an insurance scam. The vessel was reported to have a hold full of expensive tuna fish which turned out to be inexpensive dog food, hence the nickname it later acquired - the "dog food" wreck.
Location: 12 km off Mango Bay
Topografiya: Still mostly intact. Since the majority of the obtrusive fishing nets now removed some penetration is possible.
Chuqurlik: To 50 m. (Due to the depths involved this is classified a technical dive for experienced divers only.)
Dengiz hayoti: The wreck is now home to some big red snappers and patrolling groupers.

White Rock

Location: Near Twins
Ko'nikmalar: Good place for night dives
Topografiya: Two large granite boulders make up this dive site.
Chuqurlik: Depths for all levels of divers
Dengiz hayoti: Butterfly fish, parrot fish, angel fish, large barracuda, titan trigger fish and red breasted wrasse. An extensive coral garden can be found here at around 10 me that is teeming with schools of butterfly fish and angelfish. Blue spotted stingrays are also a common sight on this dive. White Rock is also a popular night dive spot where feather stars, and an variety of crustaceans can been seen hunting for food.
Diver training

There are a large number of dive operators on the island, offering dive courses from BSAC, SSI and PADI. Many centre's are offering budget accommodation (sometimes described as free accommodation, but this is not really true as you will usually get a discount if you stay elsewhere). In 2009, the price for PADI open water certification including the new PADI training manual, professional instruction, rental equipment, boat dives, and certification was around 9,800 baht; insurance and basic accommodation may also be included. Shop around as not all shops teach the course in the same way. Look for experienced dive instructors instead of a low price.

A common method for teaching new divers is to train in a pool first by being taught about 20 basic skills before being taken out into the open water. Others will instead take you to a secluded beach so you will see fish and coral from the start and you might be able to squeeze in a short extra dive in this way, depending on your group and instructor. Some shops have a private pier, some shops depart with a longtail from the beach, and some use the public pier, where you will have to climb some other boats. Ask if this matters to you. Most important: find out maximum number of dive students in a group, and make sure you get an instructor who speaks your language if you are not absolutely sure about your English. These are the little things that will make the difference between an OK course and a great one.

From Bangkok there are three main options for getting to Ko Tao.

  • By air: (fastest but most expensive) Flights from Bangkok direct to Ko Samui for a few thousand baht. From Samui take one of the high speed ferries to Ko Tao (Lomprayah Catamaran or Seatran) - for about 550 baht per person and takes about 1½ hr.
  • By train: From Bangkok airport go by m taxi to the main Hualamphong train station in town (about 200 baht). Travel by overnight train to Chumphon. Bed in air conditioned cabin for under 1,000 baht. From Chumphon take a high speed ferry to Ko Tao. About 500 baht per person and takes about 1½ hr.
  • By bus: (the budget route) From Bangkok airport go by meter taxi to Khao San Rd (about 200 baht). At Khao San Rd you can book a combined bus and boat ticket direct to Ko Tao. This will be an overnight bus ride to Chumphon, then by ferry the rest of the way and should cost less than 1,000 baht total.

Ko Pha Ngan

Ko Pha Ngan is the ideal departure point for sites in the Angthong Marine National Park, Southwest Pinnacles, and Sailrock. As they are nearby, divers benefit from shorter journey times and being first to arrive at the sites. It also exclusively opens up night dive opportunities at Sailrock.

Ko Samui

Ko Samui is more renowned for its long sandy beaches and sizzling nightlife than its diving, but there are some enjoyable sites nearby.

Sho'ng'in saytlariga quyidagilar kiradi:

SailRock

Sail Rock is the best-known dive site in the Ko Samui area. It is a rock pinnacle shaped like an iceberg which emerges from a sandy seabed at 40 m to tower 15 m above the surface. It is also a magnet for fish and there are many pink anemones.

Ko Yippon

Ko Yippon consists of 50 different islands. The visibility is lower than that of the other sites in the area but the scenery is still beautiful.

Chumphon

Chumphon Province offers the visitor an astonishing array of natural attractions and it is a good place to stop and enjoy the healthy diversity of marine life and fringing reefs. One can also do some night diving.

Sho'ng'in saytlariga quyidagilar kiradi:

Ko Lak Ngam

Location: 15 km northeast of Chumphon. It is one of 40 islands which belong to the Chumphon Marine National Park.
Dengiz hayoti: There are plenty of hard and soft corals and it is home to a large amount of sea life such as bat fish, trevally, fusiliers, turtle and seasonal whale sharks.

Pattaya

90 minutes from the capital, this coastal shoreline is ideal for those in Bangkok who wish to do some diving on their day off.

Sho'ng'in saytlariga quyidagilar kiradi:

Hardeep Wreck:

The most popular destination in Pattaya for diving buffs is the Hardeep Wreck which was sunk by the allies in the Second World War. The wreck lies on its starboard side at a maximum depth of 26 m.

Ko Chang Marine National Park

Ko Chang has seen an explosion in the number of visitors over the past few years. It is just one of a total of 52 islands in the Marine National Park. Even though the area has previously been victim to man-made damage, there is still the chance to enjoy fringing reefs, marine life, a wreck, giant clams and snorkeling. Visibility is usually around 10 m. A major draw for the Ko Chang reefs is the shallow depths, where you as a diver can get a long bottom time observing one of the largest variety of fish species anywhere in the Gulf of Thailand. This is a good place to learn scuba dive skills but while interesting, the reefs cannot compare to their counterparts in the Andaman sea.

Sho'ng'in saytlariga quyidagilar kiradi:

Hin Kuak Maa

Hin Kuak Maa offers the diver a huge variety of solid and soft corals which are home to moray eels, blue-spotted sting rays, sea turtles, starfish, stonefish and puffer fish.

Hin Luk Bath

Hin Luk Bath has turned into one of the most favored dive sites around with its boulder formations which appear from a sandy seabed 15 m down. The way they jut out allows a vast array of corals and barrel sponges. It is possible to see angel fish and barracuda.

Hin Rap South

Hin Rap South is an 18-m rock pinnacle which can be dived by anyone of every level. It is covered with staghorn corals, barrel sponges and delicate corals. Experienced divers can also venture out 200 m to admire a group of rocks known as Blue Mountains which often glow from the sun.

Hin Run Tek

Hin Run Tek with an average depth of 12 m, is a huge rock formation site with a diversity of colorful marine life such as parrotfish, wrasse and angelfish.
