Great Livaboard
Amazing experience with the dive crew Nea, Bert, and Erik. They are knowledgeable of the area and dive sites and ran things flawlessly. Thai crew and good onboard were great. On top of that, amazing diving, ecology, and all around experience.

Best staff!!
Amazing experience with the world’s best staff! We were not the ‘typical’ liveaboard customers and the Manta Queen 5 team went above and beyond for our family! We brought our recently certified 10 and 12 year old boys on the trip- which seemed like a first for most everyone involved. We had our kids do 7 and 8 of the 11 dives based on how they were feeling and which dives they just weren’t certified to dive as junior divers . At first I assumed I would only dive with my kids (nervous mama) but after the first dive with their private guide Charlie- we let them go diving while we got more depth on the sites. Also- unexpected but a great help was multiple other dive guides all played card games and chatted with the boys between dives. The Manta Queen 5 gave the perfect length itinerary for our boys first liveaboard and still got me to the sites I wanted to dive coming from half way around the world to do. All of the support staff was amazing as well- especially the cook Ling and the dingy driver Ming. The boat itself was basic accommodation but comfortable for a short dive trip- we are all out there for the experience and the diving and this boat provided what we wanted with a budget when paying for 4 guests. I’d dive this boat again over a fancy boat with more guests any day.

Above my expectations
The diving was obviously amazing. But what really made the trip was the main dive instructor Marja who did a really good job of setting the vibe. The food was amazing and the thai crew really helpful, smiling and caring. I enjoyed this trip a lot!

Great diving and a great atmosphere
Bumping into 3 guitarfish just lying next to us. Seeing a huge marble ray glide past us. Encountering two octopuses and seven cuttlefish. Seeing three sharks on one dive. Eating the green curry sauce every day. Meeting nice people from all over the world.

- 1 My group's dive guide, Xavier, was the perfect combination of professionalism and fun. He also managed to find the smallest sea creatures in conditions of extremely poor visibility. 2 We visited some great diving sites and saw lots of fantastic creatures. 3 The atmosphere on board, among the guests and crew, was always jovial.
