“A beautiful tour of the Similar Islands and a great way to get a huge variety of diving in.”
The M/Y Genesis I offers dive liveaboard trips in the Andaman Sea from November - April each year. The Genesis I is custom built for divers and has a spacious covered dive deck, camera station and nitrox is available free of charge for certified divers. Divers have the choice of a 2 night North Tour, which explores world famous sites Richelieu Rock, Koh Tachai and Koh Bon, a 2 night Similan Islands itinerary, which visits dive sites such as West of Eden, Elephant Head Rock, Christmas Point and Boonsung Wreck, or a combination of both to create a 5 night ultimate tour.
Topside, the MY Genesis I liveaboard caters to 12 guests in 5 twin bunk and 2 single cabins. Each cabin has independent AC and panoramic sea-views, and guests share 2 bathrooms with western toilets and showers.

Amazing service, diving, and value for money on the Genesis I
Several beautiful current/drift dives. Dive sites filled with hundreds of thousands of fish. We saw our first whale shark - a rare sighting in that area! - and dozens of other unique sightings of net eels, ribbon eels, stingrays, beautiful coral, anemones, and more. Stefan was an incredible guide and made us feel very safe while doing an excellent job of spotting interesting findings. We agreed we would dive with Stefan anywhere in the world! The crew - especially Stefan - did great making us feel comfortable and at home in between dives. The food was excellent. The boat has tight quarters but all services and spaces were adequate for what we needed for a short trip.

- The diving and dive guides were amazing: 4:1 diver-to-guide ratio and the guides knew a lot both about the marine life and about diving. The food was excellent - some of our best food in Thailand. Great camaraderie across the whole group and comfortable despite the small quarters.

Best Budget/Value for Money LOB
Visibility was not the ideal or the entire trip but the marine life I see at the dive sites is good enough to chase the blues away. Water was surprisingly cold, hitting 24 degrees celsius at times but it was still a fun experience.

- Food was absolutely delicious and they provide soft drinks at no additional cost, Tanks were always charged up to about 220 (sometimes 230) bars (good for those who always hope for that additional air) and they provide nitrox at no additional cost. Boat crew and dive guides were all very friendly and welcoming
