Fantastic value for money with spectacular diving, I highly recommend Manta Queen liveaboards.
The diving is spectacular, particularly Richelieu Rock & Koh Bon. The days are well structured so you can just enjoy the dives, eat well as soon as you are back on the boat, and then relax before the next dive. The food is excellent with lots of choices to cater for all tastes. Snacks and drinks are available all day which is convenient. The boat is very comfortable - cabins are well air conditioned when you need a break from the sunshine. The boat crew are extremely helpful and friendly and made us all feel very welcome. The dive instructors shared many interesting details about the dive sites and what to look for on the reef. I learnt a lot and thoroughly enjoyed the trip.

April coincides with the season of fish breeding, the coral reefs are full of glass fish, the ecology is very good, and the night diving to see sharks hunting is also very amazing

Incredible Diving Trip
My boyfriend and I had an incredible dive trip. This was our first liveaboard trip and we are only open water certified. We took the deep adventure course during this trip, which I would highly recommend to those who are not advanced open water certified. Our dive guide Colin was awesome. He made us feel safe and comfortable and brought us to see the most interesting things at each dive site. After each dive he did a quick debrief with us about which fish we had seen and helped us identify the fish we didn't know. The dives themselves were incredible, with vibrantly colored coral and tons of fish. We enjoyed clownfish, butterfly fish, morrish idols, triggerfish, an octopus, barracuda, puffer fish, nudibranch, moray eels, a sea turtle, a fleeting manta ray and so much more. Although we did not see a whale shark, we were not at all disappointed with the dives on this trip. I would recommend it to anyone.

A great tour with a great crew
The Similian Islands and Surin National Park are truly beautiful and offer a variety of dive sites for all types of divers. The two areas offer a very wide variety of fish, corals and rocks as well as different types of diving such as drift dives, wreck diving, etc. The entire crew of the MQ1 and also the instructors are doing a great job. They are approachable at any time (day and night) and for almost any question and have a good conversation for their customers. Professionally absolutely TOP and very well organized, I felt very comfortable and safe under the guidance of Marja. The instructors are very well rehearsed with the boat crew, have a well-communicated schedule for everything and have everything firmly under control from registration to the last hug. The boatboys are very on their toes and always help with putting on and taking off the equipment.
