Precautions for snorkeling in Thailand

In recent years, diving in Thailand often has some accidents, so what should you pay attention to when diving in these islands in Thailand? Bian Xiao came to sort out some for everyone today, and friends in need will have a look together!

Scuba diving in Phuket occurs all year round, and the most suitable diving season is 1 1 month to April of the following year.

In other months, the weather in Phuket is unpredictable and rainy, and the marine environment is not suitable for diving.

Boarding in Phuket lasts from late June to mid-May. Outside this time, monsoon storms are unpredictable, and it is very dangerous for ships to appear on the high seas.

Therefore, the best months for diving in Thailand are 1 and February, and the water temperature is 26℃, while the water temperature is around 30℃ in May and June. There may be an unpredictable period in March and April, which may reduce the temperature by several degrees, but it will only last for a while. Most divers choose to wear thin full-body diving suits for protection.

As we all know, if you want to dive under the sea, you must have a diving certificate, which means you have certain ability to complete diving. But for some beginners, it is best to dive under the guidance of a professional coach to ensure their own safety because of their insufficient diving experience.

Choose a reputable center or travel agency and use well-maintained equipment with experienced coaches. If you are unwell, drunk, or have no potential companions, don't commit suicide and go diving alone!

Be sure to wear a life jacket before launching and know how to use snorkeling equipment. When you have problems communicating with the coach, make sure what the coach means.

In addition, don't leave the team without authorization. No matter how good the water is, don't be too far away from the big army, so as not to get the wrong number or get timely help in case of danger.

When you take part in water sports, you need to ask their prices clearly, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble (easy to get stuck, etc.).

The boatman will take us all to a certain sea area, and then throw some bread crumbs himself, and the fish will swim over. Diving is spectacular, and the sea is especially clear and beautiful. Be sure to go!

The deeper the diving depth, the easier it is to find different underwater landscapes. Some people, out of curiosity about the sea, will try to dive into deeper waters to explore the mysteries of the seabed.

However, the human body's ability to withstand seawater pressure is limited. Once the seawater pressure is too high, the human body can't bear it, even wearing a diving suit. However, after the internal pressure of the body, the organs will not function normally and may damage the organs.

So don't be greedy, just dive to the same position, and be sure to consider your physical condition.

The bottom of the sea is another paradise, where another group of creatures live. The most surprising thing is that there are thousands of colorful creatures on the seabed.

But be careful not to touch the creatures on the bottom of the sea at will, such as jellyfish, sea urchins, sea eels, shells, etc., otherwise accidents may occur!

Pay attention to the undercurrent. For any water activity, you need to pay attention to the sea surface. Some beaches, such as Surin Beach, have deadly undercurrents and are not suitable for water activities.

In addition, inserting a red flag on the beach means that the sea surface is not good and tourists should not engage in water activities. Even if the sea is in good condition, tourists should ensure that lifeguards are present before launching.

Safety precautions for playing by the sea 1. Watch out for dangerous waves and slippery rocks. Sometimes it is quite dangerous to hit a big wave. If you are not careful, you will get dizzy, so if you feel that a big wave is coming, you must be careful!

Moreover, in some shallow sea areas, there will be uneven reefs. Be careful not to step on them, which will not only easily slip, but also easily scratch your feet.

2. Beware of poisonous jellyfish Similarly, poisonous jellyfish sometimes appear in shallow waters. When you see a jellyfish, don't be curious to catch it, or you will be caught.

Note that flags of different colors are often planted on the seashore in this area.

The red flag represents the danger in this area, and swimming in the water should not be or prohibited.

The yellow flag means that this area is swimming, but be careful.

The red and yellow flag indicates that there are lifeguards in this area. This is a safe area. You can swim between two red and yellow flags.

Please don't go swimming after drinking. Please keep calm when drowning. If you accidentally drown, you must stay calm and wave for help.

Please don't go swimming in the rainy season. May to 10 is the rainy season in Phuket every year. The weather is changeable and rough. If there is a red warning flag on the beach, it means that swimming is forbidden.

If you are taken off the coast by the current, please keep calm and drift in the direction of the current. Don't try to swim in the opposite direction. You can swim left or right from the current.

7. Don't go swimming at night. If you go swimming at night, you may not get timely help because of your poor eyesight.

8. The working hours of beach lifeguards are from 8: 30 am to 6:30 pm.

For safety, please swim in the water during lifeguards' working hours.

9. In case of emergency, please contact.
