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!

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.

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.

Great laid-back diving on nice boat and attentative crew
I was really glad we got to dive Richelieu Rock 3 times. That was totally worth it. Thanks to Steve for taking it easy and giving enough slack for us to explore around on our own while still keeping an eye on just in case :)

The dive staff and crew treated us like royalty. Amazing!
What can we say? What an amazing experience. The dive team Steve, Will and Ciara did an amazing job above and beneath the water. We feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to meet interesting and fun fellow divers. We started as strangers but left as friends, with both passengers and dive crew. If you're thinking of doing a live aboard in the Andaman Sea, I would strongly suggest choosing the Blue Dolphin.
