Memorable first liveaboard experience diving in the Similan Islands
In this diving trip I was able to get Advanced Open Water and Nitrox and take advantage of these certifications and use it towards the dives. The diving instructor, Noon, was very friendly and was around to answer questions about the things we were learning. The boat crew was very helpful always being on time with the meals and also helping us put on our diving gear every time. The cabins were simple but bed was clean and the size was appropriate. I would recommend this diving team and the Manta 5 for all my friends. The Similans were beautiful to explore in the beach and under!

Best staff!!
Amazing experience with the world’s best staff! We were not the ‘typical’ liveaboard customers and the Manta Queen 5 team went above and beyond for our family! We brought our recently certified 10 and 12 year old boys on the trip- which seemed like a first for most everyone involved. We had our kids do 7 and 8 of the 11 dives based on how they were feeling and which dives they just weren’t certified to dive as junior divers . At first I assumed I would only dive with my kids (nervous mama) but after the first dive with their private guide Charlie- we let them go diving while we got more depth on the sites. Also- unexpected but a great help was multiple other dive guides all played card games and chatted with the boys between dives. The Manta Queen 5 gave the perfect length itinerary for our boys first liveaboard and still got me to the sites I wanted to dive coming from half way around the world to do. All of the support staff was amazing as well- especially the cook Ling and the dingy driver Ming. The boat itself was basic accommodation but comfortable for a short dive trip- we are all out there for the experience and the diving and this boat provided what we wanted with a budget when paying for 4 guests. I’d dive this boat again over a fancy boat with more guests any day.
