Highlights
The 25m MV Explorer is a great option to explore the underwater beauty of the Similan Islands, Thailand. Dive with manta rays at Koh Bon, whale sharks at Richelieu Rock, and beautiful reefs at the Surin Islands. Walk on pristine beaches and trek into the jungle as the M/V Explorer takes you on 3-day and 5-day trips to the Similan Islands of the Andaman Sea. The experienced dive guides are more than happy to take requests to find special critters such as seahorses, pipefish, and nudibranchs.
Topside, the MV Explorer dive liveaboard has 8 cabins catering to 16 guests. There are 6 ensuite cabins on the lower deck: 2 are double cabins, and 4 can be configured as double or twins, depending on guest requirements. There are 2 double cabins on the middle deck. All cabins aboard the Explorer are air-conditioned, have sea view windows, and feature personal reading lights, 220v plug sockets, and ample storage space. Hungry divers will be taken care of as freshly prepared food is served throughout the day, meals vary between local Thai cuisine and international dishes, and vegetarians can be catered to on request. For relaxation, guests can choose the lounge & dining or the sun deck, which is also a great place to take in the stunning views and keep an eye out for playful dolphins.

Great experience
This was my first liveaboard and it was amazing. Took me a few days to get used to sleeping on a boat but the team had seasick pills available for everyone to help out. The crew were always available for whatever we needed. Food was very good and lots of the drinks were included which was great. Dive sites were really good and the guides all there to show you what you are interested in as much as possible and then explain to you with the books available on-board what you just saw. They also try and make it that all guests mix together to creat a good energy which is really appreciate as someone travelling alone.

The trip was great
Our guide was just awesome. He talked to us beforehand what we wanted to see, showed us a lot under water while diving and then came up to us on his own and showed us what we saw in the book. We also learned a lot from him about the protection of corals and creatures.
