Re: Dec diving.
From sipadan, philippines, thailand (except koh samui area), manado and other parts of indonesia are mostly divable. Phuket in december can be a hit/miss affair as it's just the end of monsoon. The 2 times i went similans LOB there in december i didn't make it up to richelieu rock due to bad weather, vis was spotty and water was coooolllddd....
