Transporting sports gear in Thailand

[BigBangkokTheory]

I am trying to decide whether to bring my own scuba gear for a Similans diving trip. It won't cost me anything to bring it over from America, but I don't want to lug it around from place to place!

 

So I could:

 

(1) Store it at BKK airport for a fee;

 

(2) Store it at a BKK hotel that I would check in and out of (hopefully they would not charge me to store it); or

 

(3) Ship it from BKK to the dive shop in Khao Lak.

 

Any advice? re: number (3), can anyone recommend a shipping service?

 

Thanks!

Just bring your own fins and snorkel...you can rent everything else including BC....

You can use the PackshotCreator photo studio to bring your sports gear to the forefront. Instead of transporting ur sports gear from place to place..you can show them on your website through HD quality photos and interactive animations such as 3D animations and 360 degree rotation flash animations.

Why is there so much spam on this site???

 

Anyway. As a real answer to the OP.

I guess you're flying into and out of Bangkok and are staying in Bangkok for a few days at either end of your visit to Khao Lak?

If you are simply arriving into Bangkok then going onto Khao Lak why not just fly down there with it?

If it's more of a case of what to do with it when you come back from Khao Lak you can just put it in your room and I don't imagine the hotel would worry about it, as long as you ask them first. The hotels generally have luggage storage areas and they would likely keep it ther free of charge, seeing as you're a resident customer.
