Choose SCUBA and snorkeling operations that
are both environmentally aware, and promote the protection of
Coral Reefs (Eco-tourism).
Buy dive equipment from companies that contribute
to the protection of the marine environment. Learn more about
the marine environment and it's sustainability.
Report any instance of bad practice that
could cause degradation of the Coral Reef. For example a dive
operation that uses anchors on Coral Reefs.
Never remove any shells, corals or fish
from the sea (dead or alive).
Do not step on, kick or even touch Coral
Reef.
Do not dispose of any rubbish (even bio-degradable)
into the sea.
Do not purchase souvenirs made from Coral
and other marine life. This is usually illegal and environmentally-unfriendly.
If you see or suspect excessive abuse of international laws
with regard to endangered species, contact TRAFIC,
or look for Thailand on C.I.T.E.S directory page.
Avoid purchasing food from restaurants which
serve any form of shark or any other endangered species.
