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.

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!

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!

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!

Solid dive trip!
Great dive trip! The boat is well-organized and has lots of nice touches - hot towels after the dives, well-stocked medical kit, great snacks and drinks in between dives, just to name a few. The boat and dive crew are top-notch, and conservation- and safety-focused. Highly recommend

Dive, eat, sleep, repeat!
This liveaboard exceeded our expectations. The crew went above and beyond to give us the best trip possible, even with some crummy weather. Pit was an awesome dive master and helped us get our advanced cert - and then we added on our nitrox cert too. One big perk of this boat is the small diving groups - my husband and I were just with Pit. The food was sooooo good and I loved the warm towel and drink after every dive. Boots and Sam ran a safe and organized boat, and then were fun to chat with after dinner. We loved our trip and highly recommend the Blue Dolphin!
