Real dive sites around Koh Tao. Photos show typical Gulf marine life, not a specific site. Marine life and visibility change with the season — nobody can promise a whale shark.
Log #05 · Medical self-check
Fit to dive? Check in 60 seconds.
Before any in-water training, every student signs a diver medical questionnaire. Answer these short questions now so nothing surprises you on day 1.
This is a demo pre-check, not a medical assessment and not the official form. Answer the official questionnaire honestly on day 1. If anything changes before your course — a cold, an injury, new medication — tell your instructor.
