I can’t wait to do it again!
I felt that I was in good hands diving to 30m under, my instructor/guide was excellent and I always felt safe enough to enjoy all that the dives had to offer. The crew was extremely helpful, always a strong arm or two or three to assure I got onto the dinghies safely with all that heavy gear, and always a warm cup of tea waiting after each dive. And the food was plentiful and high quality. I couldn’t have asked for more. I can’t wait to do it again!

Excellent experience on Manta Queen 7
Amazing experience the team provided. I can’t wait to dive with the outfit again. Lin was amazing and really inspired in me a new found love for the small critters that I never gave much consideration too. She really showed me what it meant to be a mature diver. And really helped me kick a lot of poor habits in the water. Can’t wait to dive with KSA again and discover more of the Similan. I found Lin’s briefings incredibly educational and honest which is the first time I’ve experienced a dive guide with that level of knowledge and passion. She is truly a treasure. Also my course instructor had this incredible way of conceptualizing the science and mathematics of diving with nitrox. Lin really showed me what it meant to be apart of a team, and I’m extremely grateful for her leadership example. My only criticism is that I wish we played more Thai music on board!! I loved the Thai crew, especially the engineer, boat boys, ladies, and captain. They really kept the spirit of Thailand alive, which is the main reason I keep coming back. And I will definitely be back!

An Excellent Diving Adventure!
Meeting people from around the world who are all there for the same reason you are -- DIVING! The corals were spectacular, and many times it felt like you were living an ocean documentary with the number and variety of marine life, especially in the northern islands. We were entertained by ~100 dolphins as we moved North, which provided a wonderful surprise to all on-board. Eels galore, and a few turtles, octopus, mating cuttlefish, nudibranch, and barracudas were encountered, among many other species you don't see in other parts of the world. The Dive Team was spectacular. Them seemed to have different areas of interest, and though we were in different groups, were great about ensuring other groups saw their discoveries. Great team work!

Similan & Surin Islands adventure
Unfortunately we missed out on any Whaleshark and Manta action, however still had a great overall experience on the MQ7. We were very well looked after by all of the dive guides, trip leader (Georgio / JZ) and especially the amazing Alyssa Mitchell. Alyssa was amazing spotting very hard to find marine creatures and allowing us to get up close for a look and photos if we wanted them. Alyssa supported us in obtaining NITROX certification and developing our skills to make best use of our ability and certification to experience the very best of each dive site. The Captain was humble and highly skilled, getting us over each site everytime and quickly retrieving us with prompt assistance from the boat crew. There was a variety of delicious food served after each dive, and plenty of water and electrolytes available to keep us hydrated.

Good choice for a diving liveaboard in Similian
Manta Queen is a good choice for a diving liveaboard in the Similian area. The company operates several boats; it is professional and the diving instructors, guides and crew were great. There was good planning and efficient execution of dives, with the guests split in two groups (with sub-groups of 2-3 divers per guide) to reduce the mess at the diving deck. On my trip the boat was at only about half of the occupancy, so it didn't feel too crowded (would probably be a lot at full capacity); the rooms are very small and I was happy to have a room for myself, it was simple but clean and comfortable for one person. The food was ok, I got pescatarian dishes, but in general options were limited and not too healthy. On the positive side, I loved that there was plenty of electrolytes to keep hydrated between dives. I also appreciated the complimentary pick-up and drop-off in Phuket. I've been in better boats elsewhere, but I have also been to a different one in Similian before and Manta Queen is among the best in this area.
