Koh Tao was a bit of a giggle. I did my PADI there, and even though it was more expensive than I had previously thought (as the exchange rate has gone so bad) it was still very worthwhile. Because we wanted to go to the half moon party on the other Island I asked to do it in two and a bit days, instead of four, which ended up being completely to my advantage as I got a one on one course for the same price. Less time doing silly safety exercises and more time looking at fishies. Woohoo! We also got some very plush free accommodation with it that completely beat Seven Eleven's doorstep and the Hotel in Surat Thani where we slept in the hallway for free because it was full. Although doing it so quickly meant that it was quite intense and I hadn't really bargained on 7.30 starts and afternoons doing 3 hours of Nitrogen physics when we decided to have a few Thai Coladas. Though because I'm brilliant and extremely clever I still managed to get 100 percent in my theory and not kill myself whilst setting up my tank drunk.
