Top cruise in marine reserves

Cruise with 9 divers, very good weather from January 22 to 27, 2026, top sea condition, beautiful sites with lots of fauna and flora, good cabin boat n°1 comfort and very nice crew. Disembarkation on a paradisiacal beach in SIMILAN.Conclusion+++++ also for Liveaboard

Recommended for
Great dive sites with abundant life. Nice and available crew and very professional dive master (max). We recommend this 6n/5d cruise on the Manta Queen 8.

Fabulous experience

Time flies by, you think 4 dives a day are a lot, but with such an interesting diving area you can actually always be under water. Even for me with only 18 dives so far. I also did a Nitrox course.Richelieu skirt was gorgeous... huge schools of 😍 fish

Recommended for
Different dive sites. Atmosphere on board. Service.

100% recommend

I was part of a 3 people group guided by Chelsie. What a great guide. Cheerful and very calm and independent under water. Always gave us freedom but never stop worrying about while trying to show us amaizing creatures.
