It's an old boat, but super well maintained. Very comfortable and air-conditioned in the rooms. The food is excellent. Both the dive masters and the ship's staff are amazing. Always happy and helping in whatever way. Very good condition of the equipment. Good places to hang out between dives. Cold water and snacks are always available. Totally recommended.

Great time, great value
We had a great time on board. The food was good, our dive instructor and crew were great, and the diving (especially Richelieu Rock) was amazing. The quarters were a bit cramped, but it encouraged everyone to go to the common area and interact, have fun with each other, and relax. In the future, improving the bedding could be one easy improvement that we thought would go a long way. The boat was very well-organized and had plenty planned to keep you busy most of the time - including beach trips, on-board BBQs, and board games. It's worth noting that although this listing says free internet, that's only if you have a cell phone with service -- there is no WiFi on-board. This isn't a "luxury" boat for sure, but if you want good diving, good staff, and a ton of fun, it's an amazing value -- my wife and I both considered our 3-day trip on the Andaman to be one of the best experiences of our 2-week Thailand vacation.

My wife and I had a wonderful experience doing our first Liveaboard with a great crew/ company!
Highly recommend doing a liveaboard with Sea Dragon! Very professional instructors/ guides, gave thorough briefings. Clean boat, good food. Fun experience, worth it! Only recommendation is to update the website requirements divers need prior to booking, such as needing to have 30m deep dive certification (you can receive it through them on the trip but budget for an additional cost).

Incredibly fun experience with some great diving, great people and great food
I had an incredible time on the 4D 4N liveaboard on the MV Andaman. There are way too many positives and pretty much no negatives. Pros: 1) Amazing dive guides 2) Fun and friendly atmosphere on the boat 3) Very spacious boat with several spots to lounge around 4) Extremely helpful boat crew providing almost white-glove service 5) Delicious, large portions of food and free soft drinks! You aren’t left wanting for anything 6) Amazing diving. Sea Dragon is the oldest dive center in the area (30+ years) so know the sites like the back it their hand 7) Super inexpensive Cons: 1) You’d hate leaving the boat and feel the blues for several weeks afterwards :)

Harmonious, familiar liveaboard with a great mix of experienced dive guides & boat crew as well as involvement of all guests!!
- Dives at Richelieu Rock were spectacular, especially the fact that the most experienced diving group with PSak dived into the strong current again at the end (where most of the fish were, of course)
Recommended for
Dive guides all very competent and great mix; good harmony and family atmosphere among each other (very authentic and not artificial) and also with the guests. Boat crew is also very competent and has everything under control (especially the top kitchen). very good mix of fun diving and attention to all safety aspects with a great supervisor Lucinda.

An exceptional experience from start to finish! The dives were absolutely beautiful, with varied sites and stunning marine life. The organization was impeccable: everything was perfectly coordinated, from clear briefings to respected schedules. A huge congratulations to the team, both super professional, warm and always very caring. Safety was a constant priority, which allowed us to dive with peace of mind. And what about the food on board... A real treat at every meal!Special mention to our divemaster Aydan, whose passion, kindness and wise advice really marked our stay.
