MV Aqua joins our fleet as a spacious, steel-hulled liveaboard designed for comfort, stability, and unforgettable diving adventures in the Andaman Sea. At 32 meters in length and 6.5 meters in width, she offers a strong, reliable platform for both experienced divers and those seeking their first liveaboard journey. Accommodating up to 24 guests in 12 cabins, Aqua provides two master suites, three deluxe cabins, four standard cabins, and three lower‑deck standard cabins. Every cabin features a private en‑suite bathroom, air conditioning, and ample storage.
On board, guests will find comfortable communal areas designed for relaxation and socializing. The spacious dive deck caters to up to 24 divers, with individual gear stations, fresh water hoses and quick-access rinse tanks for comfort and convenience after each dive. The main salon offers lounge seating, a library, display lockers and a dedicated camera room. Dining is a communal affair, served in an indoor/outdoor dining area where guests enjoy meals prepared fresh daily, featuring both local Thai specialties and international cuisine. For those seeking shade or outdoor views, the sun deck provides lounge chairs and seating areas perfect for watching the sunrise or sharing dive stories over a drink.
For most of the season MV Aqua runs 4‑night itineraries through the North Andaman Sea, visiting world-class dive sites including the Similan Islands, Koh Bon, Koh Tachai and the renowned Richelieu Rock. These sites are famed for vibrant coral gardens, pelagic sightings and superb visibility. At times early in the season, the boat also ventures to the South Andaman Sea, exploring Koh Haa, Hin Daeng, Hin Muang, Koh Lipe and Phi Phi Islands. At New Year, there is a North-Andaman trip that is 5-nights.
To celebrate her debut, MV Aqua is offering free Nitrox to all Nitrox-certified guests throughout the 2025–2026 season, allowing longer bottom times and safer decompression profiles without extra cost.
Whether you’re drawn by the vivid corals of the Similans, the pelagic allure of Richelieu or the secluded beauty of the southern reefs, MV Aqua delivers a comfortable, well-equipped base from which to dive, relax and reconnect with the ocean.

Itinerary
MV Aqua always departs in tve evenings, after guests are collected from local hotels and Phuket airport.
After sailing through the night you wake up at the first dive site, which is usually in a calm and sheltered bay with little or no current.
Each full diving day normally consists of 4 dives, with the final dive either a sunset or night dive depending on the conditions and logistics.
On the final day of the trip you normally get two (sometimes three) dives, before returning to harbour in the afternoon.
The itineraries below are the most-common for each trip, but these can sometimes be changed for a number of reasons. Small changes are made due to weather & sea conditions, special marine life sightings, overcrowded dive sites, local-authorities' instructions, and the needs & requests of the paying guests. The safety & comfort of all guests is most important at all times.
