Yellow Submarine Pattaya - Pattaya Diving Boat - Pattaya Submarine - Pattaya Underwater
Thanks to the Beatles, we have all heard about the yellow submarine, and now you can go in the real thing?
At Pattaya, you can. Traveling at a maximum speed of seven knots, this bright yellow vessel can dive to the depth of 100 meters.
Take a ride and explore the beautiful coral and marine animals just off the coast of Pattaya – without getting your hair or feet wet.

The whole excursion starts at the office of the Company at the end of Walking street, shaped in a Submarine and yellow colours. Then after a one minute drive to the actual Pattaya Pier you disembark on a small boat that brings you to a raft/jetty that is the docking station for the Submarine. Once you get in a couple of minutes later the dive begings and you find yourself under the Pattaya Sea, where you can enjoy local underwater world, also a diver comes to say hello showing you some amazing shells and other submarine life. The whole excursion should take about two hours. Very nice for children also.

The first registreed submarine, PIROM, was built in Belgium on 2001. It was moved to Israel then, finally, it comes to Thailand. Maximum operating depth is 100 m., capacity is 48 people, maximum speed is 7 knots, length 22.2 m., height 7.2 m., it is electro-hydraulic system. And life support time is 72 hours. After PIROM arrived at Thailand on 3rd of June 2004, we checked the condition of PIROM at Dry dock. After that, Germanische Lloyd's (GL), which is one of the best worldwide submarine inspection companies, inspected PIROM to test the safety of submarine. Finally, on October, we received permissions from GL, Navy, Harbor department, Pattaya city hall, and Ministry of defense Thailand.
