This trip makes you feel like you are back in the days of Jaques Cousteau's pioneering diving.
The mix of soft and hard corals in the Mergui islands is exceptional! Till date, there has been almost no bleaching. The Burma banks, situated far from land, are amazing dive sites. Giant ancient coral bommies with many nurse sharks sleeping underneath them and cruising around. There are also silver tips and a profusion of fish. The currents provided great drift dives and the visibility was excellent.

- The Mergui islands are breathtaking. They are one of the most unspoiled Archipelagos in the world.. We did not see any other liveaboards during the entire trip.. Dive and cruise. They took us on a beautiful tour of the islands, the view was continuously changing..

Great dives, great food, great staff.
Dives were so much fun. The dive masters were relaxed but still took care of us without babying us. After every dive, the crew would provide you with hot drinks and we were fed five times a day.

Best experiences
This is one of my best experiences in my life. The boat was amazing. Cabins clean and very comfortable. Food was amazing, good mix between western and Thai food. Although we didn’t see any big fishes the diving was amazing. To do my AOW here was the best choice I’ve ever made. And all honor to my dive instructor, Ping. He made it so easy to complete my course, thank you. I’ll definitely come back sometime and will recommend this to all my dive buddy’s!

The liveaboard of a lifetime.
This boat and its staff brought together a fantastic group of human beings with whom to spend a week diving. The accommodations and the gear were all top notch. During my time on board, I completed my advanced certification with Jonathan, who is an incredible mentor and cruise director. Also important, the staff and crew on The Phinisi are incredibly respectful of marine life and observant of the national park regulations. Highly recommend.

My first liveaboard couldn't have been better!
My first liveaboard couldn't have gone better. The crew was extraordinarily helpful and friendly, the dive guides super personable and the food was really good. The ship itself was also very cozy. Everyone always tried to make sure that you were satisfied. The dives were also super nice, and I also felt super safe with the dive guides (only had 20 dives before doing another 18 dives on the Phinisi - so I wasn't that experienced). Also the dive crew, who always prepared the equipment for us, and led us with the Zodiac to the dive sites, was great. All in all, a really great experience that I wouldn't want to miss!

Outstanding, such a hard-working crew, exceptionally high standards!
I cannot recommend the Phinisi as a liveaboard experience more enough - this was the most incredible and professional liveaboard I have been on. From the safety briefings, to the dive sites, to the food, the onboard pharmacy, the aesthetic of the wooden boat (with functional sails…!) it was all amazing. The crew are incredibly friendly, professional and fun - the boat is so spacious with lots of areas to hang out and have space from other members, and the cabins are all air conditioned with en suites and so comfortable! The diving was beautiful with Richieu Rock being a stand out dive site - highly recommend taking the crews advice and getting up early as the site can become crowded with lots of divers - but it is so worth it. We didn’t have as many big fish i.e. mantas, whale sharks but we went early November which is slightly out of season - and sadly the water was very warm (the bigger fish liking cooler water). All in all an absolutely outstanding experience with the crew making the effort to put the sails up on our last day which was so special - and it truly is the most beautiful boat on the Andaman Sea!
