First liveaboard and ready for more!
I was apprehensive at first about going on a liveaboard on my own but I am thankful that the trip was really enjoyable - be it the good company, good food, or great dive sites. It was fun interacting with fellow divers, hearing about their diving experiences and travel adventures, and sharing a few drinks with them. The dive guides took care of us (and the marine environment) and carried out detailed dive briefings so that we could enjoy the dives. Expectations for Richelieu Rock were high and I'm glad it didn't disappoint. It was really awe-inspiring to see large shoals of barracudas and schools of tunas, and not forgetting the cute anemone fishes and beautiful corals. Another highlight of the trip was probably the night dive. The briefing was hilarious but conveyed the safety messages across effectively. Thank you SeaDragon for such a memorable trip!

Great value for money. The food is amazing. The crew and dive guides are awesome. Stephan led the crew and I had Svante as my guide. Super awesome. The sites were great. I got to swim side by side with a turtle , spent a few minutes watching an octopus kaleidoscope. This is not a place for large pelagics… but the rock formations and fishes are awesome. 😎 Don’t expect wifi to work because cell towers are rare and star link is banned. Overall, for what I spent, it was worth it. I’ll do it again.

Perfect experience.
This is an excellent company - dive guides really take safety and the environment seriously compared to some of the other groups we saw. The food is awesome. Very nice social area with shade so not cooped up in cabin all day. Would definitely do again. Ideal live aboard experience for beginners as well.

High school class trip vibes, in a very good sense – just the right balance of professionalism, reasonable limits, and plenty of fun. Seamless organization, great divers, excellent boat and crew. The food and really affordable drink options on board are worth a special mention too. Also really lucky with the lack of early season crowds and nice weather. Dive sites are not all world class but it's been a nice build up to the absolute highlight: Richelieu Rock.

It was an amazing trip. Definitely the best food made by P Oil, every meal or snack was delicious. The boat crew and our guide (P Ton) were so kind and helpful. There wasn't a thing left behind. We have experienced amazing diving thanks to the choosen dive sites and our guide whom perfectly knew where to bring us! (He made sure to avoid the crowded divers spots, which wasnt really a thing during the liveaboard anyways) We were lucky to see a manta ray and had the pleasure to dive privately along with the manta for full 5 minutes, thanks to P Ton asking us to drop our group on another spot

An exceptional experience from start to finish! The dives were absolutely beautiful, with varied sites and stunning marine life. The organization was impeccable: everything was perfectly coordinated, from clear briefings to respected schedules. A huge congratulations to the team, both super professional, warm and always very caring. Safety was a constant priority, which allowed us to dive with peace of mind. And what about the food on board... A real treat at every meal!Special mention to our divemaster Aydan, whose passion, kindness and wise advice really marked our stay.

An unforgettable diving trip with many great dives
Thank you very much for this unforgettable diving tour with the M/S Andaman and SeaDragon Dive (Khao Lak). From check-in to check-out, everything was super professionally organized, so you can see that the tour participants can rely on the 20 years of experience at SeaDragon. The transport to the boat was comfortable, short and relaxed. The stay on the M/S Andaman was from the first moment vacation as I had imagined it. The cabins/bunks were clean and comfortable and there was enough space to store your things properly. A huge thank you also goes to the entire 6-person boat crew who kept everything clean at all times (especially the washing and shower areas). Likewise, they have always made sure that no wish remains unfulfilled, fruit, drinks, refrigerators, etc. were permanently replenished so that they could access them at any time. Every single dive was highly professional and with a lot of fun are briefed and carried out with a lot of humor. Here, too, the Boots crew came into action and helped out a lot on the dive deck. A special thank you also goes to Lucinda who, as tour supervisor, was able to answer all questions extremely professionally, had the entire tour process and also one or the other challenge under control at all times and was a great guide and buddy for me for many great dives. I would also like to thank Karlos and Jess as a dive guide and buddy for the dives they completed with them, it was incredibly fun. The passengers on board came from a wide variety of regions of the world such as Canada, Mauritius, Germany, UK, NL, Australia, Croatia, Sweden, India, the USA and Mexico. This variety of different people has also enriched the trip very much. All in all, I am super happy to have chosen exactly this tour and will definitely dive with SeaDragon in Khao Lak again. The tour is highly recommended and memorable. Thank you and see you next time. 🤿

Lots of food - local and western. Very generous portions and have left over for each meal. Excellent dive briefing - showing pictures of marine life excepted. Detail written log provided after each dive. Created platform to share pictures. Saw whaleshark at Richelieu Rock. Many marine life such as octopus, shrimps, crabs, lobsters, sponge snail, nudibranch, barracuda, jack fish, bat fish, etc. Marvelous discount for repeating customers.

Just a great liveaboard with a great crew and great atmosphere! We had one of the two ensuite cabins and were completely satisfied. It was three trips as a total booking with changing guides and passengers, but it did not detract from the mood and the feel-good character. We would especially like to mention our guides Enya and Champ - just great! Absolute recommendation, we will be back!
