The Manta Queen 3 brings you the ultimate scuba diving liveaboard experience with 6D/5N trips on the North Andaman Route. Explore world-renowned dive sites: Similan Islands, Koh Bon, Koh Tachai, Surin, Richelieu Rock, and Boon Sung Wreck.
Manta Queen 3 The liveaboard vessel is 36 meters long and 7 meters wide steel hull built liveaboard that is manned with 6 Dive Staff and 10 Boat Crew. The vessel accommodates 28 guests in 12 comfortable air-conditioned cabins of which four different types are available: double bed ensuite, twin bunk ensuite, twin bunk non-ensuite cabins and 4 bed shared cabins to suit groups and families. There is plenty of space to enjoy the time in between dives in the air-conditioned Saloon, the open dining area, the Captain’s Balcony or on the large sun and shade deck.
The Similan Islands and its Whale Sharks! A liveaboard trip in this area is one of the best scuba diving experiences you will find in Thailand. Its huge granite boulders with caverns and arches, lush greenery, and white sand beaches ring the nine islands, completing the view from above water. The marine ecology in this area is unparalleled, colourful schools of fish, coral reefs, and endangered species that welcome divers like the Whale Sharks or Manta Rays. Look out for such photogenic little critters as ghost pipefish, sea moths, frogfish, ribbon eels and many different nudibranchs. Koh Tachai and Koh Bon, members of the Similan Island National Park, are visited en-route to Richelieu Rock in the Surin Marine Park, and offer more Pelagics, Napoleon Wrasse and Night Diving for Macro-Critters.
