Four days of excellent, friendly diving.
Extremely high value voyage! This was my second liveaboard and everything substantially exceed my expectations. All of Chef Ann's food was delicious but anything pork was a step above! Trip director Ric had everything organized very well, was super easy going and friendly, and managed to have us on time or early for almost every dive and transit. Diving in Paan's group of other AOW divers was a blast. Briefings were clear and detailed, and his navigation of the sites was flexible and professional to help maximize bottom time and chances of seeing things unique to each site. Also, shout out to the gas tech for mixing nitrox to within better than 0.5% of 32% O2 every time - very impressive!

Unforgettable Liveaboard experience with awesome dive guides, crew and food.
Blue Dolphin was an excellent liveaboard that we would recommend to anyone else wishing to dive the Similan and Surin Islands. The Dive guides and crew were excellent. Safety was high on the list of priorities. Food was absolutely amazing and the cooks went out of their way to cater to anyone who was vegetarian. Richlieu Rock was unforgettable. We would certainly be happy to dive with them again.

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.

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.

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!
