July 2010-2009-2008

July was a typical July: some bright and sunny days, quite often partially sunny days with on some days a bit of rain, and also some overcast days. But only four really rainy days.
With a slight breeze the weather was most of the time very good for diving, we experienced just five days with strong winds.
Some coral bleaching can be seen at Racha Yai, but the weather cooled down before real damage could be done.
In 2009 the diving boats could not go out on one day in July because of the weather conditions, this year there was one day where we were limited in our destinations because of the height of the waves. On all other days the boats could go to all destinations.
