First experience diving and on a liveaboard - could not be happier !
Thank you for this awesome experience! It was my first time on a liveaboard and first time diving and my instructor Laurent really helped me a lot to be more confident in the water, teaching proper safety guidance and showing great marine life. The boat was awesome, always clean - I already miss the food a lot! Awesome boat crew, always kind and smiling and helpful when having to get back on the boat post-diving with the heavy equipment. Thanks for the great time !

Highlight of my trip
I had an amazing time. I was hesitant to go because I was travelling alone but there was a good mix of people travelling alone and in groups. There were people of all ages and experiences on board as well. I am not sure why they tell you to bring snacks - there is an abundance of food and snacks on board. The food is delicious too. The crew was amazing as well, they helped us gear up and even helped us put on our fins etc and they filled the tanks up generously. Everything ran smoothly. The cabins are modest but for the price paid they are ok (if you ever stay in hostels a quad room should be ok for you). The guides were professional as well, showing us all the fish and other species. Some were more and some less interactive with the divers, but all were professional. Tpecially nice, you can see that he is veperienced and has a passion for the ocean and marine life. Some dives were great, in some the visibility could be better but that is nature. The crew did the best they could each time :)

Very nice liveaboard, with exceptionally good food. We felt comfortable and the whole team was great. We experienced a lot in the 5 days, we even saw leopard sharks. Richelieu Rock is a must-see.

Come to dive. Stay for food.
With experienced guides and a crew that has worked together for many seasons, I would highly recommend this liveaboard to dive around the Similan and Surin Islands. This was my third liveaboard. Hands down. Best food!
