Wonderful liveaboard experience
One of the guys in our group was an inexperienced diver. The dive crew watched him carefully with one on one supervision which was very much appreciated. We did the Nitrox and Advanced Open Water certification courses while on board with our dive master Bon. The dives were highly varied and amazing. Shout out to the kitchen crew who cooked us up some great meals in a tiny galley. The only issue we had was difficulty communicating with the boat through Liveaboard.com prior to the trip. I would recommend communicating directly with Big Blue Diving Khao Lak through WhatsApp and email in the final few weeks prior to the trip to confirm transportation and equipment rental details, etc.

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.

A perfect trip and wonderful experience
A manta ray at Koh Bon; the adventure of the ridge at Koh Tachai; of course Richelieu Rock, where we did not less than three dives but equally being in company of the charming international and Thai crew. It felt like a trip among old time friends.
