Well thought-out, humorous and yet professional.
When a whale shark was spotted at Richelieu Rock, the crew immediately changed our plans and we made the next dive there. And yay, we actually saw him!!The boat was well thought out and offered good retreats and mega comfortable chillout zones even when fully occupied.The crew was humorous, but professional through and through.

Excellent value for money
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.

An all-round great exchange experience
It was 7 great days for me. The 22 dives were so well timed that I didn't feel completely exhausted even after 4 dives in one day. There was a lot to see under water, both very small shrimps or snails but also turtles, moray eels, large schools of fish and corals in all colors. The cook brought excellent dishes to the table, people with food intolerances were also taken care of, and of course there were also vegetarian and vegan dishes.Lydia as a supervisor was always friendly and contributed a lot to the good atmosphere on board. My two dive guides Charm and Nin ensured calm, relaxed dives and showed you again and again what there was to see. It was my first liveaboard and completely convinced me.

Unforgettable moments with a top team, excellent organization and impeccable supervision!
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 adventure that I recommend 100%!

Just great!
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!

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

Every dive has a careful drawing to illustrate the diving plan, I saw dolphins, octopus, giant rays, sea wolf storms, all kinds of big fish storms and many other species, the crew is very friendly without racial discrimination, all kinds of reminders, intimate service, mobile phone lost and help to find it, rain and help to dry clothes, meals grilled fish, Thai food are delicious

Stay Feb 6 - Feb 17 2025
Spent 11 day aboard the Andaman, which is actually three separate trips, 4 day, 3 day, and 4 day. I spent most of my time with a single guide, Aiden, extremely knowledgeable and worked very hard in trying to find what our group stated we wished to see (macro). My other guide Enya was just the same always looking to make the guests time diving as enjoyable as possible. The boat supervisors I encountered, Lucinda and Leon, were both extremely organized and knowledgeable about all the happenings and procedures of the boat, including the diving (they also were acting as guides when needed). Most dive groups were a maximum of 4 or 5 per guide. Boat crew were extremely professional and helpful in any and all capacity from helping with assembling dive gear, putting on dive gear, helping fix dive gear as needed, cleaning the boat/living areas, and any other tasks. Diving conditions were spectacular, coral life was mostly healthy with a few spots of bleaching/dead, but there was still an extreme abundance of life. Most dives had a current however due to most sites locations and layout drift diving was not an option meaning when currents shifted you had to fight the current. The one 4 star in cabin comfort comes from the beds as they are quite quite firm, I elected to sleep on the top deck most nights in a hammock. Food was mostly western style in the mornings, and Thai for lunch/dinner and was always prepared well with more than enough for the entire boat to not go hungry. Dakota S
