Fantastic Liveaboard

First Liveaboard experience, and this trip really left us wanting more — so many fantastic experiences under and over the sea and many great people. Davy, Viki and Monja were the dive guides, and were extremely nice and professional — we took our adv. open water and Nitrox course with Viki, and we really enjoyed it and learned a lot! Highest recommendations from us!

The first night dive that was spectacular for me! Managed to see barracudas hunt, sharks swimming around & giant crabs hiding under the reefs/rocks!

First liveaboard was incredible experience and great value for money

The food was fantastic, the chefs are very talented and catered for my dietaries very well (vegetarian). The boat boys were extremely helpful and a lovely addition to the dive deck. All the dive staff were very knowledgable and seasoned professionals. Definitely won't be the last liveaboard I do, this was a great experience. Keep in mind Similans area gets advertised as high likelihood of seeing Manta Rays and Whalesharks, however, this is not the case and its generally unlikely you see either. The diving is phenomenal though, especially Richelieu Rock which is world class. Just want to manage expectations as many on the boat including me were looking forward to seeing the big stuff.
