Similan Liveaboard Richelieu Rock
From the beaches of the Similan Islands to Richelieu Rock, via Koh Bon and Koh Tachai: granite, coral reefs, gorgonians, schools of fish and, in season, manta rays and whale sharks.
Embark on an unforgettable journey to discover the underwater treasures of Thailand’s northwest coast during our 4-days Similan liveaboard cruise departing from Khao Lak or Phuket. From the white sandy beaches of the Similan Islands to the majestic Richelieu Rock, including Koh Tachai and Koh Bon, you will explore all the world-class diving sites of this region.
Immerse yourself in a spectacular underwater landscape, with granite rock formations and sedimentary reliefs adorned with an incredible diversity of hard and soft corals, as well as giant gorgonians. You will be amazed by the abundance of marine life, with hundreds of endemic species and stunning schools of fish accompanying each of your dives.

« What more can you say when you go to Thailand to dive »
What more can you say when you go to Thailand to dive. A feast for the eyes. Sites rich in hard and soft corals. Oh yes, we ate really well, thanks to the cooks as well as the crew and the guides. Beware of little Tom who introduces you to Thai boxing. He is lively, fast and too kind. I would start the adventure again with my daughter (Level 2 diver). That’s for sure.

« I just went on my first diving cruise »
I just went on my first diving cruise. And honestly, I had a waking dream. You were perfect. The boat is great, the organization is ideal, the food is divine, and the entire crew is so attentive and just sensational. I hope that life will allow me to come back for another diving cruise with you. A huge thank you to the whole team. See you soon 🤞🤞

« The best company I have ever travelled with »
The best company I have ever travelled with. It’s one thing to say that everything is ace, but the staff are so warm, kind and helpful that it’s beyond words. I accidentally left my wetsuit on the boat. After a few phone calls they had already arranged to be at the airport with a transfer. I can only recommend🙏😊

« THANK YOU »
THANK YOU! Thank you for this first diving cruise which was exceptional. From start to finish everything was perfect. The INCREDIBLE food, the little touches from the staff, and above all, the safety during the dives. They know the diving spots like the back of their hand, so there are lots of nice surprises waiting for you.
