Would book again in a heartbeat!
Highly recommend!! Friendly staff, amazing dives, and some of the best dive days of my life :) The rooms are as expected, but are value for price. The food was delicious and always freshly made. I appreciated the well thought out operation - they provided various medicine if needed, electrolyte drinks that I thought were thoughtful.

My 1st Live aboard and totally mesmerised by it!
I loved the whole experience. The price is a bit steep but is fair for the excellent service you receive. I totally recommend Khao Lak Scuba Adventures and the Manta Queen 1 boat.

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!

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.
