Choose a trustworthy operator running liveaboards to the Similan Islands in October.
Check for availability and compare prices for liveaboard tours in October. Many operators already have the next season online.
Make your reservation well ahead of time because the Similan Islands are such a popular dive destination, and October trips can sell out really fast, especially when peak season comes.
For those in Phuket, liveaboard trip reservations are available that include transfers from Phuket to the Khao Lak departure point.
Consider the number of nights the liveaboard trip will be, since longer 6 night trips offer more dives around various dive sites and the opportunity to see more of both the Similan and Surin Islands compared with a day trip.
Just make sure you are at the correct certification and experience level because some liveaboard operators have requirements for different dives or sites (only certified divers are permitted to dive in the National Parks in Thailand).
Be prepared for the possibility of slightly stronger currents and slightly less favorable weather conditions in October, as opposed to the peak time from December to April.
By following these steps, you really should be in a position to get on board a memorable liveaboard diving vacation to the Similan Islands.
