Hi All,
Looks like I'm headed to SE Asia in Dec, 2012 for several weeks. I'm going to be based in Singapore and was looking into making a dive trip to Thailand - Phuket area. Reading up, looks like better dives are to Similan islands and Live-Aboard is the way to go. I'm OK for a 4-5 days trip out of Phuket. If there are other suggestions or areas in vicinity, let me know. We'll likely head to Bali later that month.
Could SD help arrange for a trip like this and potentially help find a buddy to avoid single-supplement charges?
Thanks,
Sumant

Sumant - You may want to consider delaying your trip until March when SingleDivers will be in Lembeh, Indonesia for what is reputed to be the best muck diving.

After only 3 days of muck diving (so far) in Lembeh, I can confirm that the muck diving is MUCH BETTER in Anilao, Batangas, Philippines. Just sayin'....
It's good here, but better there.

They may not have taken you to the really good spots yet... however Anilao may still be better....

Hi DesiDiver.... YES we can help you several ways...
1. SAVE THE MOST Option #1: If you know where you want to dive and when...we can save you the MOST money. By not needing to send a group leader we can pass SAVINGS onto you!
2. Save SOME Option #2: If you don't know where you want to go (or have not used our site to give you feedback) then we can still save you some money but not as much since we are doing the legwork for you.
3. ALWAYS GET HELP FINDING A BUDDY Option #3: No matter how we help you either via option #1 or #2...we can always help you to find a roommate. We use our mailing lists and our website to help you if we book your travel.
TIP: You can use our Where in the World forums to help you ask other members where they suggest in Thailand.
