Hi all,

I'm looking to organize a night beach dive, and possibly a bonfire, music, drinks/munchies on the beach afterward, but don't know what beaches are good for diving from.

Also is the question as to whether a bonfire would be allowed on the beach.

Would like to do this for New Year's Eve, but also in the future so any advice is really appreciated!

Thanks!

Hi beaner,

I can't help you with the logistics in Phuket, but it sounds like a lovely new year, and you reminded me I wanted to do similar on Lanta.

I would check with the marine and fisheries dept about fires.

Please post or pm me if you make it a regular thing as it sounds lovely.

Best diving: Northern end of Kata Beach, where there is a nice reef close to shore.

I'm thinking the same. Should be out of the way enough, and good shore lighting so you wouldn't get lost. I might worry about the fisherman that seem to live around there.

A bit late, but Ao Sane in Nai Harn is a good spot.
