Koh Tao, Thailand. You sleep in a small really cheap beach hut, no furniture except a bed, a toilet and a shower. The occasional cockroach doesn't spoil the fun. In the morning you get out of bed, walk the short distance to the beach where you have pancakes for breakfast with your significant other & friends. Then you head out, along the beach, to the boat that will take you and a dozen other dive fanatics around the island. The diving is good although not excellent but the 'ambiance' is incredible. Between dives you relax on the sundeck, fresh pineapple is cut. If it gets too hot you jump off the sundeck into the sea 4 metres below where you float in your wetsuit (do not pee in your wetsuit, thank you, you don't get the smell out THAT easy).
In the evening you hang around the open-air bar, relaxing even more with interesting people from around the world.
