Great liveaboard experience
Professional crew, comfortable boat and tasty food. We had a room with two beds and private bathroom. The rooms were small but clean and the beds were good. Our dive master Tasja was professional and really made an effort is finding the smaller underwater creatures, which was great. The Liveaboard that Loma Diving runs does a full route (itinerary C) and you can also do either the first part (itinerary A) or the second part (itinerary B). We did Itinerary B and I highly recommend that route because it includes the dive sport Richelieu Rock, which was at another level compared to the other spots. A big speedboat brought us from the mainland to the liveaboard boat. The ocean was calm and the speedboat trips was therefore fine. When you go diving smaller 'dinghy' boats drop you off and pick you up. Which is great and more safe for the divers. Diving in the Similan Islands and specifically Richelieu Rock has been the best that I have experienced in Thailand. Our trip was mid-March and visibility was pretty good (30-40m) and Richelieu Rock was an explosion of underwater life (both fish and soft coral). We have had a lovely trip and I would recommend a liveaboard with Loma Diving to friend and family any day.

The overall package of this liveaboard was convincing
From the first welcome to the startle, everyone was super friendly, And always helpful. Every breafing was very well prepared and understandable. All communication on board was excellent. At the dive sites, almost one was more beautiful than the other and with Tasja as a guide, every dive was a great experience.

Excellent first Liveaboard Experience. Highly recommend!
As our first liveaboard, we really didn't know what to expect. We were delighted with the friendly crew, dive guides and fellow passengers/divers. My dietary restrictions were addressed and food carefully prepared and always delicious and plentiful. Our dive guides (Toun and Thomas) were professional, helpful, friendly and always endeavored to make our dives the best they could. Nadi was fantastic in guiding us through the Nitrox Level 2 course - truly couldn't have been more knowledgeable, helpful and encouraging.

Fantastic diving experience in Thailand
We had 3 wonderful days on the boat (Trip A) to the Similan Islands. This was our first time on Liveaboard and the first time we had 4 dives in one day. The crew and instructors were absolutely fantastic, skilled and professional - and contributed to a memorable diving experience. The food was very good and varied, and adapted well to allergies. The boat has a very good standard and is in very good order. The dive sites were great, with clear water and plenty of fish. Many thanks for the trip, and an extra thank you to a fantastic crew:
