5-star experience in the boat!
- The boat condition, such as the cabin, toilet, common area, was exactly like what is in the photo - clean, new and comfortable! - The service was impressive! There’s free transfer from/ to hotel. We’re welcomed by Steve with a free beer/ chocolate. The housekeeper would give a clean dry towel, hot face towel and warm drinks/ hydration shot after each dive. She also made our bed and replaced our shower towel every morning. - All dive staff was very friendly and professional. They took good care of every diver’s safety and ensured we still had fun. Dive sites were different from the stated itinerary because of the weather conditions. Some also took amazing underwater photographs of us. - Food was 5-star quality!!!! Probably one of the best kitchen in Thailand! There’s good mix of local Thai and western food in all 4 meals. Everyone was fed very well - Diving itself was incredible!! Beautiful colourful corals with lots of dynamics of marine lives! We saw 5-6 manta rays at Christmas Point (what a Christmas miracle!!), nurse shark, schooling of barracudas, octopuses, giant humphead parrotfish, heaps of trumpet fish, boxfish, etc. The dives and experience on the boat easily make it THE BEST liveaboard trip!!! Would highly recommend to everyone, no matter you’re beginners or experts!

The perfect first liveaboard
Richelieu is definitely the best dive spot, and the people are all so nice. I didn't feel any discomfort during the trip because all Blue Dolphin managers are very kind and helpful.

Wonderful experience!
Wonderful experience! Although we weren’t lucky enough to see manta rays or whalesharks, the diving experience with Blue Dolphin was truly amazing with great food, service and friendly staff. My favorite was definitely Richelieu Rock, you will certainly enjoy large schools of fish swimming around you and other rich marine life there.

Nest Liveaboard in the Andaman Sea
I've been on different boats around the Similans and in other places and this one topped the others. They are just a little bit better in everything. They even made Dinghi drops comfortable for me. the guides were all instructors and very competent, they briefed and debriefed the dive groups individually. everyone on the boat was always in a good mood and super friendly. I'll be back!
