Bangkok Dive Shops

There are several very good shops in Bangkok where you can pick up any extra gear you need, or get things repaired. These shops carry just about everything you could think of, but don't assume that prices will be cheaper than back home. Most of the equipment is imported, so it's not going to be cheap.

Dive Master

Dive Master operates a large training facility in Bangkok, and also has dive shops in many major Bangkok department stores. For visitors, the most accessible and well-stocked branch would be at Siam Paragon in Bangkok's main shopping area of Siam Square. The area, located in the department store's sporting goods section, has a good selection of masks, fins and other small items, but you won't find much in the way of major pieces of equipment, like BCD's, here. Their own dive shop is on Asoke Road, not far from the Skytrain and Subway stations. The shop has a selection of Ikelite lights and housings, and can order anything from their catalog.

Dive Supply

Thailand's largest distributor of dive gear is based in Phuket, but has a shop in Bangkok where you can find just about anything you need. The shop recently relocated, and is now on Sri Ayuthaya Road. The easiest way to get there is to take the Skytrain to the Phayathai station. Take the exit closest to the Thai Military Bank building, cross Sri Ayuthaya Road and walk away from the intersection. The shop is about a five minute walk down the street. Opens 11:00 to 18:00 daily except Sunday.

Planet Scuba

This full service dive shop offers training in Bangkok, as well as ocean dives from their own boats in Pattaya, Samui and Koh Tao. Their showroom in Bangkok is the most well-stocked I've seen, and I've bought most of my gear here. The shop is also extremely easy to get to, as it's right at the Prompong Skytrain station on Sukhumvit Road, and they have a very helpful English-speaking staff.

Oceanic Thailand

The Oceanic shop is the only place you can get their stuff repaired, plus it has a good selection of new gear. The address is 71/1 Sukhumvit Soi 39 (Prompong). It's a long walk from the Skytrain station.
