Practical

Position approximate: the OpenStreetMap node for Baan Lam Sai village; Wikivoyage places the school at Lam Sai Village Hotel, Ban Laem Sai. Lam Sai Lobster Seafood and the Chong Koh Yao anchorage are close by. Ask about trips to Shark Point, Anemone Reef and Koh Doc Mai (see the Phuket entries). Wikivoyage's listing is older; confirm the school is still operating. Dive operator, not a dive site: there are no published scuba sites inside Phang Nga Bay itself, where visibility is low. The dive sites these shops use are in the Phuket file.
