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.

Amazing trip - I can only recommend it!
The boat was new and clean with plenty of space in our room and on deck. The crew was incredibly helpful and the whole team was super friendly, always looking after you. The food was delicious too! We had the most amazing time diving some of the most beautiful, pristine divesites with mantas, sharks and big schools of fish. Cheers to our guide Alex and to the whole team for some unforgettable moments on board and under water!

Great liveaboard with Blue Dolphin!
Great liveaboard experience. Rooms are comfortable. The service and staff were amazing. You definitely don’t loose weight as the food is superb!! They are detailed oriented - like when you finish a dive they have hot little towels waiting for you. They also have detail items for cameras - like special towels for cameras and air to dry them. Dives were great. Everyone on the boat has a smile and is making sure that everyone is happy. Highly recommend. We are seasoned divers and have done multiple liveaboards- and this one stood out for us.

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!
