happyrobert Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 In BKK next week, staying in Sukhumvit, and looking for a shop with high quality dive supplies. Most notably, new fins and mask. Websites appear to be outdated (what a shocker! - maybe that's another post) - one says there is a shop where there is now a boutique hotel! So would appreciate some help from those with first-hand knowledge...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHdiver Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Have a look at Mermaids Shop in the Amarin Plaza Building, 2. Floor. Amarin Plaza is on Sukhumvit/Ploenchit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h90 Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 My guess would be that areas with diving like Koh Tao or Phuket are better to buy things. All I found in Thailand was so overpriced that I imported everything instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LawrenceAlexWu Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Not sure if the islands are cheaper or not...if they were, most likely it would be phuket or Koh Tao as there are the largest concentration of dive shops there. In BKK, they're pretty scattered. Google: Wahoo Dive Supply Planet Dive Mermaids Divemaster THere are more for sure...but i'm sure you'll find links to the others which are also not so centrally located & perhaps speak less english too...but at the same time might be slightly better priced.
