Unforgettable liveaboard experience on MQ3!
My time on this liveaboard was incredible. Everything was perfectly organized, and both the diving and the life on board exceeded all my expectations. The equipment provided was high-quality, well-maintained, and the boat crew took care of absolutely everything: helping with entering and exiting the water, setting up and removing equipment and always being there with a smile 💕. The cabins were clean, comfortable, and air-conditioned, making the stay even more relaxing. A big thank you as well to the entire housekeeping team for keeping everything consistently clean, tidy, and comfortable throughout the whole trip. We were spoiled with delicious food around the clock – several warm buffet-style meals a day, plenty of snacks and even ice cream. A special shout-out goes to the kitchen staff, who worked tirelessly to make this smooth and enjoyable experience possible. Between dives, there was never a boring moment. There are lots of cozy places to relax or also to find privacy if you want. MQ3 has truly the perfect setup for comfort and entertainment. The dive sites were spectacular, with highlights like Koh Bon and Richelieu Rock, offering an incredible variety of marine life – from schooling fish and vibrant reefs to breathtaking macro sightings. Diving with our guide Noah was fantastic. I always felt very comfortable diving with him. He did everything to make sure we felt safe at all times underwater and had a great eye for spotting marine life. The group itself was a wonderful mix of ages and nationalities, creating a warm, friendly, and fun atmosphere where everyone connected and shared experiences. In short: a beautifully organized, welcoming, and absolutely unforgettable liveaboard adventure. I can recommend it 100%, and I would return in a heartbeat 💗!

One of the best-organized dive cruises
One of the best-organized dive cruises we've ever done. The staff is always attentive and incredibly friendly. Our guide, Patricia, was fantastic. The boat is large and comfortable. The cabins are small but adequate.

Brilliant e
It was absolutely amazing being on board of the Manta Queen 3. The food of chef Koy was really good. The dive guides were so nice, friendly and helpful (Woody, Naido, Emmy, Jack). The biggest thank you goes to Bank, he took such good care of us and made the diving absolutely great and at all times i felt safe and taken care of. He helped me with my gear and has a huge knowledge. Thank you Bank! Also generally i have to say that the Briefings by Naido and Woody were so good and thorough, so that when we went down, i felt super ready. Thank you guys! Without the Thai crew it wouldn’t have been the same or as easy to go diving and honestly, their music taste is soooo good and set the mood for the dives haha! (Aek, Non, Tiger, Ter) Last but definitely not least Captain T and Engineer M. brought us to all the spots, day and night. It was super wavy but at all times they made sure we were save and arrived at the right time.

Dive! Go to bed! Dive! Go to bed!
From the crew to the dive guide to the friendly and professional, this is my first liveaboard trip. I was lucky to have met such a boat, which was the perfect end to my first liveaboard trip. Next time I come to Similan liveaboard with friends, I will choose MQ3!
- Recommended for
- The crew and dive guide were great. Although the food is single, it can be full. The cost performance is too high.
