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.

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.

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.

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

As much diving as you can handle in 4 days!
If you love diving, you’ll get more than enough on this trip. Four dives a day, day after day. Really great sites, plenty of live corals (still). The folks that work on this boat are all top notch.
