Eco Conservation on Koh Tao - This is What Happens When People Work Together
Eco Conservation on Koh Tao with Sairee Cottage Diving and Roctopuss Dive. During our MSDT program we joined forces with Roctopuss Dive to teach our Divemaster, IDC and MSDT candidates how to organize different Eco projects in an easy and fun way.
We first had a lecture about using Eco websites, facebook, Project AWARE and other social Network Pages effectively in promoting Eco topics followed by 3 Eco Projects: Beach Clean Up, Coral Watch Monitoring and a Reef Clean Up in the afternoon. What an Awesome Day!
In a very competitive dive industry on Koh Tao we from Sairee Cottage Diving and Roctopuss Dive believe more in working together to become more successful and create divers with a better attitude. Especially when it comes down to organizing Eco projects we should all work together!
If you are interested in joining our Divemaster, Dive Instructor or any other professional/Eco Conservation training then please check out our websites for more information:

Ko Tao
Added: February 03, 2008
Ko Tao (also often Koh Tao, Thai: เกาะเต่า, lit. Turtle Island) is an island in Thailand located near the eastern shore of the Gulf of Thailand.
In january 2008 i used 20 days on Koh Tao.

I did stay at Sunshine (hotel) at Taa Toh Bay where the Scuba Shack/Star diving team has a Padi diving school with some of the most trained Scuba divers on this planet; Dirk, Jay, Merlyn,Vladimir & Pee Wee.
A stay that i will remember with pleasure for the rest of my life.

Koh Tao covers an area of about 21 km². Administratively it forms a tambon within the district (Amphoe) Ko Pha Ngan of Surat Thani Province. As of 2006 it's official population number in 1382[1]. The main settlement is Ban Mae Hat.
The economy of the island is almost exclusively centered around tourism, especially scuba diving.
Ko Tao was named by its first settlers for the island's turtle-like geographic shape. Coincidentally, the island is an important breeding ground for Hawksbill turtles and Green turtles.
Development of tourism has negatively impacted the health of these grounds but a breeding program organised in 2004 by the Royal Thai Navy and KT-DOC, a coalition of local scuba diving centres has reintroduced hundreds of juvenile turtles to the island's ecosystem.
Diving Thailand Sail Rock 12 December 2013 Underwater video
SailRockDiversResort. Thailand. Koh Phangan, Chaloklum
Considered the premier dive site in the Gulf of Thailand, Sail Rock is a pinnacle which rises to 15m above and 40m below the surface. Sail Rock lies between Koh Phangan and Koh tao. It's famous for its natural underwater vertical swim through or chimney which divers can enter at 6 metres and exit at 18. It is also the visiting site of many larger pelagic fish including chevron barracuda, big schools of mackerel, jacks, trevally and tuna. You may encounter a seasonal whale shark with over 40 spotted at Sail Rock in 2012 alone. Giant moray eels and lion fish have also taken up residency. The Trigger fish are also very playful during their nesting period!
