Relax your diving trip in Similan
The friendliness of the crew. Really friendly. They always greet me with a smile on my face, which makes me feel good throughout the trip. The food that comes out after diving is also delicious with just the right amount of seasoning. And the important dive guide is FM, and safety is the most important thing in principle. In the case of cabins, there is a separate toilet and the size of the room is appropriate.

Great liveaboard
The liveaboard with the Manta Queen 1 was an unforgettable experience! The route through the northern Andaman Islands – Similan Islands, Koh Bon, Koh Tachai, Richelieu Rock and the Boon Sung Wreck – offers some of the best diving in Thailand. Richelieu Rock in particular impressed with its biodiversity. The crew was consistently friendly, helpful and well organized – you felt in good hands at all times. A real highlight was the food on board: It is hard to believe how such incredibly delicious and varied dishes were conjured up every day in such a small galley.All in all, an absolutely recommendable safari for all diving enthusiasts!

April coincides with the season of fish breeding, the coral reefs are full of glass fish, the ecology is very good, and the night diving to see sharks hunting is also very amazing

Incredible Diving Trip
My boyfriend and I had an incredible dive trip. This was our first liveaboard trip and we are only open water certified. We took the deep adventure course during this trip, which I would highly recommend to those who are not advanced open water certified. Our dive guide Colin was awesome. He made us feel safe and comfortable and brought us to see the most interesting things at each dive site. After each dive he did a quick debrief with us about which fish we had seen and helped us identify the fish we didn't know. The dives themselves were incredible, with vibrantly colored coral and tons of fish. We enjoyed clownfish, butterfly fish, morrish idols, triggerfish, an octopus, barracuda, puffer fish, nudibranch, moray eels, a sea turtle, a fleeting manta ray and so much more. Although we did not see a whale shark, we were not at all disappointed with the dives on this trip. I would recommend it to anyone.

A great tour with a great crew
The Similian Islands and Surin National Park are truly beautiful and offer a variety of dive sites for all types of divers. The two areas offer a very wide variety of fish, corals and rocks as well as different types of diving such as drift dives, wreck diving, etc. The entire crew of the MQ1 and also the instructors are doing a great job. They are approachable at any time (day and night) and for almost any question and have a good conversation for their customers. Professionally absolutely TOP and very well organized, I felt very comfortable and safe under the guidance of Marja. The instructors are very well rehearsed with the boat crew, have a well-communicated schedule for everything and have everything firmly under control from registration to the last hug. The boatboys are very on their toes and always help with putting on and taking off the equipment.
