Manta Queen Three liveaboard

Join the Manta Queen Three liveaboard to the best dive sites at the Andaman sea for 5 days of excellent diving at the Andaman Sea in Thailand. What more you could you ask for?

Spacious liveaboard

On this Similan Island liveaboard trip you do 19 dives at the best dive sites: Similan Islands, Richelieu Rock, Surin Islands, Koh Bon, and Koh Tachai, finishing off with a plunge at the local Boonsung wreck. These dive sites offer a wide variation from large granite boulders and rock walls to search for critters like shrimps, nudibranchs or tiny crabs, hard corals, rocks covered in soft coral, to caves and tunnels to swim through. New experience time and time again!

Awesome marine life

The marine life is just as awesome as the dive site formations. You will see schooling trevallies, batfish, snappers, fusiliers, butterflyfish, damselfish, sweetlips surgeonfish, barracudas, emperors, and rabbitfish but also the ‘biggies’ like the triggerfish, bump head parrotfish, giant groupers and Napoleon wrasse is around.

There is a pretty good chance to meet the majestic manta rays, turtles, sharks, stingrays or even whale sharks! You need good eyes to find the beautiful tiny critters (pipefishes, seahorses, anglerfishes, ribbon eels, boxfishes). And much, much more!

Thailand liveaboard

On this Thailand liveaboard, you are diving in small groups of 5 divers per dive guide and for approximately 50 minutes. The dive groups on this liveaboard trip are based on certification level and experience.

And between the dives, there is plenty of time to enjoy the magnificent scenery and to relax.  On the liveaboard’s large sundeck, where you can get tanned (don’t forget plenty of sun protection!). You can snooze away in a hammock, on the captains ‘balcony’ or the shaded deck. The beautiful salon with big sofas and HD-TV to watch the videos which were made during the dives and the open dining area to enjoy the space in the shadows, maybe searching in a fish guidebook for the new and unknown friends you made during your last dive while sipping some coffee or tea. . .

Beach excursion Similan islands

Want to be a bit more active between your underwater adventures? Hop on the dingy and have an excursion to one of the beautiful islands with their tropical turquoise water, white beaches, big boulders, and thick jungle. A short walk up to one of the viewpoints gives you a panoramic view and ideal photo shots. Imagine sitting on a stunning viewpoint and watching the unearthly colours of the most beautiful sunset!

And by the way, now only Similan Island beaches are open for visiting!
