Lipe Revisited

It’s been a strenuous recce with 20kg of dive equipment & another 5kg odd of cameras & housing. Getting there took almost an entire day. It didn’t help that our point of contact FFK(delayed flight) on us. We met another dive operator who was on his way back to the island & established dive arrangements with him instead. What a blessing in disguise as his operation was professionally run & his wife has a bakery too!!! Yummmm…….

Before I give you what’s beneath the ocean in Koh Lipe, the last southern-most island of west Thailand, here’s showing you what the topside is all about


Evening sky…..


The waters just outside the bay of Pattaya Beach on Lipe.


I stayed in this family ‘bungalow’ of two adjoining rooms for the duration of my stay in Lee Pae Resort.

When I was in the bathroom, I shouted to my manager who was travelling with me, “Ong! There are worms in the bathroom!!!” Then he shouted back, “Don’t worry, these kind won’t bite you!” (?!???!?…..he’s got them in his bathroom too, I guess. Millipedes got too many legs for me to like them. I left them where they belong…….


Around the island……

Soon, what’s beneath coming up after my decompression time……. zzzzzzzzzz
