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.

Highly recommended
During the days I was there I had a very good experience. The staff was aware that we did not miss anything at any time, they were very friendly and the cooks were great. If you have little time to do a life on board it is phenomenal although it is a bit intense as there are 4 dives, two of the days and two the last one before returning to land.The very friendly instructors always dedicated enough time for the briefings before each dive so that we had the necessary precautions in each of them and they made an effort to make us comfortable and enjoy each dive.In short, highly recommended!

Incredible experience as my first liveaboard
It was my first liveaboard experience, and I was a little nervous at first. However, I quickly realized there was nothing to worry about. The crew was incredibly kind and helpful, and they provided everything you might need, including diving gear, meals, snacks, and even medication. I experienced seasickness for the first time, but it improved quickly after taking the medicine they offered. They even hosted a sunset party on the boat on the last day, which made the trip even more special. If you are planning to visit the Similan

A truly memorable experience.
The diving was amazing, especially since I went before high season and so we had most of the sites completely to ourselves. I traveled alone and therefore was thrilled to have ended up with such a great set of people onboard. If we weren’t diving, we were laughing! And last but not least: the crew. I can not put into words how professional and friendly they were.

Perfect Trip dive with MQ1
Richelieu Rock is one of the best dive sites I have ever had, so many fishes swimming around me. Wreck dive on the last day was also a awsome one, a lot of special fishes in there. Crews on MQ1 were very friendly and helpful, my dive master Peter is a very gentle and kindly and handsome man.

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
