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!

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.

What a wonderful trip!
Our dive guide Pit is very very friendly and passionate, we are lucky to have her as our guide. The marine lives here in Similan and Surin National Park are amazing! Never ever had seen so many fishes which make the visibility very limited (but I like it)! Food and drinks are tasty and plenty, crews are always happy to aid you on whatever you need.

Great liveaboard experience!
Crew were great - after each dive you would be handed a hot towel and a drink, which was much appreciated. Food was fantastic and you would never go hungry on this liveaboard. Dive staff were very experienced and is obvious that they place safety as the number one priority. Highlights would be having a leopard shark swim right up to us which was amazing. Richelieu rock is also an amazing dive site and is teeming with all kinds of marine life.

Amazing first time!
This was our first Liveaboard and it was a great experience. The crew puts safety first, friendliness and comfort was also addressed. I thought the number of guests on board was perfect.

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.
