Highly recommended
During the days I was there I had a very good experience. The staff was aware that we did not miss anything at any time, they were very friendly and the cooks were great. If you have little time to do a life on board it is phenomenal although it is a bit intense as there are 4 dives, two of the days and two the last one before returning to land.The very friendly instructors always dedicated enough time for the briefings before each dive so that we had the necessary precautions in each of them and they made an effort to make us comfortable and enjoy each dive.In short, highly recommended!

Great for snorkelers and new divers.
My wife and I hadn't been diving in several years. We took a pool refresher and after our first dive were back in the comfort zone. Friends with us only snorkeled and we all had a wonderful time.

A real cruise as we like them
For my first cruise, the 15 dives were all different and very beautiful. Steven my Instructor did my first baptism for night diving in complete safety and confidence, thank you Steven. The experience of sharing the same passion with people from different backgrounds. And above all a dedication, a servitude that the staff gives on board the boat and throughout the cruise. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.... ❤️❤️.

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.
