New low budget liveaboard for Burma

Dophin Queen Liveaboard

We've just added a new Burma liveaboard to our collection.

MV Dolphin Queen will run six trips to the Mergui archipelago this season.  The 5 day 5 night trips will start and finish in Ranong (we can arrange transfers from Phuket if needed). Starting at 35,500 baht this is the best value Burma liveaboard available.

To see all Burma liveaboards take a look at our website.

Introducing 3 new liveaboards

We've added 3 new boats to our portfolio.

MV Peter Pan is a solid twin engined liveaboard that runs 4 day 4 night Similan/Koh Bon/Richelieu Rock trips from as little as 22,900 baht per diver. She's 26m long and takes 22 guests. Nitrox is available. Divers can be collected from Phuket or Khao Lak.

Peter Pan Liveaboard

MV Thai Sea is our only liveaboard based in Ranong. She runs trips to Surin/Koh Bon/Richelieu Rock but she also offers short trips up into Burma dive sites and that's why we like her. Typically Burma liveaboards are long and expensive trips but with MV Thai Sea you can do 4 day 3 night trips into southern Myanmar for just 22,800 baht. Combined with a 3 night Thailand trip it's a really nice Andaman Sea Safari. Or longer Mergui trips of 5 or 7 nights are also available.

The boat is basic but relaxed and the French owners will really take care of you. Being based in Ranong it's also reachable for Koh Tao based divers.

MV Thai Sea Liveaboard

Next season we will be offering Scuba Adventure liveaboard trips. This is another low budget boat that dives the Similans and Richelieu Rock but we've already got plenty of boats for those dive sites. Why we are really adding Scuba Adventure is because she dives Hin Daeng, Hin Muang and Koh Haa. We've had very few boats going there this season and it's a shame because we rate Hin Daeng as highly as the Similans. Scuba Adventure has 3 day 3 night trips to Hin Daeng for just 18,000 baht per diver. She also has very good rates for snorkelers/non divers.
