An amazing first liveaboard diving experience
This was our first liveaboard experience and it left us excited to do more! From start to finish, we were impressed. Communication about the trip and having questions answered in a timely manner. The boat crew and dive guides made us feel safe and cared for. The dive sites were all amazing and the itinerary flowed well. We loved our dive guide for the trip, Arm, and would love to dive again with him in the future. The boat crew was so helpful in making the transitions in and out of the dives so smooth.

Couldn’t have had a better first liveaboard!
My first liveaboard experience and may be the best one I will ever have. Well organized diving schedule. Funny and nice staffs. Handsome and pretty diving guides. One of them is Miss Thai, can you imagine? Love the food and may have eaten too much before diving lol. Loved the quizzes time and everyone is so obsessed with winning lmao. Met divers from all over the world and definitely a lifetime experience!

Good option for diving in Similan and Richelieu Rock
We have enjoyed these 4 intense days of diving very much. Richelieu Rock is very worthwhile, other points of Similan are not so spectacular, but we have enjoyed it anyway. Dive groups are a maximum of 4 divers per guide. Our guide Peem, the best! He has tried to find us all the possible animals to photograph! The food is very tasty every day, sometimes too spicy for those of us who are not so used to it, but we have eaten very well. In addition, snacks and fruit are available all day. They also have a good first aid kit available for any emergency. They do not provide towels when getting out of the water, but it was not a problem as I could directly go to the cabin. When we go in and out of the water we have always been given water or tea. The assessment in general is very good; Perhaps we have missed a safety breafing of the ship when embarking. The dives are very frequent, for me perfect! But if you are looking for a more relaxed diving plan, this is not your boat.

Did not want to leave the boat, could stay on it forever!
I’ve had a wonderful time on the seatopia. We hat 4 meals everyday, freshly cooked and super delicious, mostly authentic Thai cuisine. No one would ever have a rest hungry between the dives. We got very lucky and had very good weather, mostly good visibility and amazing sightings of beautiful fish and even sharks during the night dive. FAQ (which I wish I’d known before) - You dont really need to bring a towel, maybe a towel poncho to throw over directly after the dive, but you’ll have a towel from the boat. - no need to bring earplugs or sea sickness medicine, this also is available (for free) on the boat 👍🏻 - electrolyte mix packages are also available, you don’t need to bring that either. - shampoo and soap are in the showers so no need for that either! I wish I’d known these things before, it would’ve saved me some Luggage room 😂 The guides were all very kind, always open for questions and helping with fish identification, things you want to improve on during your dives and so on. If you have, bring a camera with the casing to do some underwater photography, the dive sites are really worth it to keep those memories 😍

Great experience.
Overall, I really enjoyed the trip. The crew was great! Very helpful getting into gear, making sure I had my separate meal (seafood allergy), and generally being courteous and fun. My dive guide Arm was one of the best guides I’ve had. He’s confident, leads the dives well, but is respectful of the skill of the divers and doesn’t mind micromanage the dive. He shared the videos he took on the dive at the end which was really great. Seatopia is a new boat so it’s very clean and well managed. The food was great. Overall- if you are wanting to dive Similan Islands in Thailand, I highly recommend.

Will book with Seatopia again!
Pick-Up - Pick up was a large van with air-con and spacious comfy seats. The team always kept in communication with each party (via WhatsApp) to make sure everybody got to the van. Food - Food was usually asian food freshly cooked on the boat. With 3 full meals a day and freshly prepped snack in the afternoon. Additionally, breakfast was served after the first dive and first thing in the morning there was toast and peanut butter or butter and coffee/tea. Meals had good variety if you didn't like one part there was plenty of other options! Always fruit out and available. Food was always served within 20 mins (usually 5 mins) after a dive. Vegetarian / Diet Restrictions We booked a vegetarian option which was usually the same type of meal (aka a soup without meet prepped separately and serve directly) Additionally staff was really good about allergies and alternatives. Drinks Hot coffee was always avaliable with milk and sugar options. The fridge was stocked with sodas and sparkling water which was all inclusive. Cold beers avaliable for 70 baht (if you drink you are finished diving for the day). Hydration from the kitchen staff before and after each dive - usually small cup of water before each dive, then either water or tea after each dive. Rooms - Rooms were clean and each had an AC unit. Each bed also had a reading light and outlet. Bathrooms - Were clean and had hot water avaliable for showers. Three bathrooms on the main deck usually no line unless immediately after a dive then maybe 1-2 person line. Medication Motion sickness meds and a full first aid stock were avaliable (all included). Diving Each dive was proceeded by a small talk of the dive site, expectations, reef layout and what we might see. Then we'd set up our gear in groups. We rented all the gear and found it all high quality and affordable! Sites views varried but we saw stingrays cuddlefish, sharks, snakes and more plus a ton of beautiful coral and smaller aquatic life. Each dive was about 40mins - 1hr ranging from 10m-40m (if your only open water they can help you get advance). We did 1 shipwreck dive and 2 night dives. 1 dive even head some caves we could enter. Crew All the crew we absolutely amazing!! Everyone was super friendly and created a welcoming environment. Always helping you with your gear, getting set up and into/out of the water. Always felt safe with the dive guides, they know there way around the reefs and are amazing at spotting things to show you! From kitchen staff, boat staff and dive guides - the entire crew was always happy to help assist, answer questions and always available. Boat amenities The boat has Wi-Fi (sometimes slow when everyone's using it). Games they had a variety of games (mostly in English) avaliable to play. The sundeck had beanbag in both the shade and sun that were perfect to rest on in-between dives. We experienced ONE morning dive when it was raining (during the rainy season!). The crew had already put down the 'skirts' around the side of the boat so we didn't get wet until we got in the water for the dive. Rain stopped by the time we got back on the boat. Was partly cloudy to sunny for most of the trip (during Thailand's rainy season!) Smoking not many people in our group smoked but there was an area on the back of the deck for smokers with more bean bag chairs. No smoking in the main areas so if you dont smoke you wont notice it at all.

Amazing Liveboard Trip
This was a fantastically organized liveaboard, everything in the trip was organized perfectly. The boat is pretty new so living on it was great. The diving was great around the south andaman sea with a great variety of sites and conditions to explore. The dive guides were brilliant in taking us to all the sites and also telling us on different things to look out for. Along with that the small ratio of dive guide to group was also a big plus. Beyond diving the food made was fantastic by the chefs. After each dive we had a delicious meal waiting for us to eat. The boat crew were fantastic with everything from helping us with getting geared up to getting off and back on the boat safely. All in all an amazing trip by the seatopia team.

The diving was just a bonus.
I booked a dive trip on the Seatopia. What I got was something far better — one of those rare trips where everything just works. From being collected at my motel to being returned, it all ran like clockwork. The boat’s modern, spotless, and built for comfort. Cabins are cool, quiet, and air-conditioned, and those hot, high-pressure showers felt like pure luxury. Meals were self-serve buffet style — a fresh, colourful smorgasbord that changed daily and was impossible to fault. The service matched it perfectly: friendly, attentive, and never over the top. The crew ran everything with calm precision and genuine warmth — they always seemed to know what I needed before I did. I was a solo diver, paired with the perfect buddy, and guided by Armso, who nailed the mix of skill, humour, and professionalism. Oh yeah — the diving was pretty good too. Would I recommend this trip? I'm going again.
