weather and diving

March
2012-2011-2010-2009-2008

March 2011 was more or less a normal March: sunny weather, with especially at the end of the month also a few days with some clouds. No really overcast days, and not much wind as well, so excellent for diving.

In March 2011 we had highly unusual five days where we were limited in dive destinations and two days where there was no diving possible at all of the normal destinations. March 2012 was also in this respect back to normal, with 2 days no diving at our housereef in Kata possible, on a few other days visibility at the housereef was not good after a rainshower the evening before, and on 1 day the wind was too strong for diving at Racha Noi and Richelieu Rock.
