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.

A wonderful break
Turtles and wonderful dive sites. The stay onboard was also great with less divers than capacity and therefore made the cruise something special, privileged.

Livesboard that lives up to its dual mission of safety and the enjoyment of guests. Lovely diving that is not overly challenging. No big stuff but an abundance of marine life on healthy corals. Highly
We had a relaxed and enjoyable time on the Phinisi. All the crew are very friendly and welcoming and we felt in safe hands. They could not have done more.

Boats and Pros: Exceeding Expectations, a Phinisi Story
The Phinisi exceeded expectations and beyond. The attention to every detail of the trip was amazing. My appreciation for the crew is unmeasurable bc they actually care. Fantastic food and no shortage of meals, saw all the marine things one could hope for, the quarters and boat were very comfortable, the rental gear was top notch and felt I was in good hands the entire trip. You know it’s the best when you don’t want to get off the boat. I hope I get another opportunity to dive with Phinisi and crew again someday. Thanks for the memorable experience! 10/10, A+, 5 stars.

Super nice liveaboard on the Phinisi
The highlight of the trip was of course the whale shark, which we saw, only one 5 divers and no one else around, wonderful experience.

Everything worked perfectly. Although the ship is newly used as a safari boat, the crew (Thai as well as the rest) seemed very organized and helpful. The rental equipment is completely new and of high quality. In terms of safety, it's also great. Before each dive, a good briefing with important information. The dive groups were divided according to experience level, and adjusted after the check dive and possibly later. Nitrox always 32%.
