The 2010 edition of Pocket Guide DIVE Thailand, print and web versions, follows the Pocket Guide philosophy: written by experts who are passionate about their subject and widely distributed to reach active, travelling divers and those interested in taking up the sport, providing an informative, quality publication. |
|
The contents of the book start with a series of introduction sections, namely: ‘Introduction to Thailand’, ‘Travelling to & around Thailand’, ‘Diving & snorkelling in & around Thailand’, ‘Health & safety’ when diving, plus a section on ‘Learning to dive in Thailand’. The book then covers the different diving regions, each with its own introduction and map, plus descriptions of the region’s featured dive sites. These are followed by detailed listings of featured dive operators and a regional directory of local services and travelling logistics. Each dive operator listing and directory has a uniform layout to maintain the high standard and profile that are the hallmarks of a Pocket Guide publication. Although every effort has been made in putting together the 2010 Edition of Pocket Guide DIVE Thailand, there is always the possibility of changes to the conditions at dive sites or facilities offered after going to print. |

British born writer and photographer, Paul Lees, has
travelled extensively throughout Asia, gaining first-hand
insight and absorbing local perspective along the way.
Numerous valuable experiences have been stored in the form of pictures and words, which have since appeared in many internationally acclaimed publications including New Holland's best selling coffee table presentations Top Dive Sites of the Indian Ocean, The Dive Atlas of the World and Diving with Giants, as well as Dorling Kindersley's Eyewitness Guide to Thailand.
Aside from spearheading the POCKET GUIDE series, Paul holds the qualification of Master Instructor under two scuba diving training agencies and Open Water Instructor in a third. He also specialises in underwater photography and is a regular contributor to regional and international scuba diving magazines.
He has also been bringing the underwater world to the surface in the form of natural history documentaries and TV shows, including ABC Kane's The Living Edens and the BBC's Really Wild Show.
When not engrossed with the range of POCKET GUIDE titles, he continues to pay attention to expanding his extensive image library on subjects both above and below the ocean surface.
He also coordinates and runs his own special brand of underwater photography workshops and training courses at a number of the most popular diving destinations throughout the Asia Pacific region, including Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand.
Paul currently lives in Thailand with his family.
