Dived with MV Manta Queen 1 December 2025 - 6 days ago
Wonderful trip experience, had 15 dives over 4 days. The trip on MQ1 between 15-19Dec 2025 everything was in order, the boat was in great shape, dive guides were great, food and stay was good, dive sites were amazing! Saw everything from Octopus, cuttlefish, blacktip and whitetip sharks, schools of fusiliers, sea kraits, sting rays, eels, snappers, emperor fish; lots of lovely fish life n huge quantity at Richelieu and Koh Tachai in particular. Saw barracuda tornado, and hundreds of tuna, jacks, emperor fish hunting together in 100s of numbers at Richelieu rock. We were also allowed a beach trip on Similan islands at Sail rock, where monitor lizards can be spotted.

I lost my Akaso Brave 7 camera and was unable to retrieve it back from koh Tachai reef, because it was on a night dive and next morning we went to Richelieu rock.
Visited dive sites: Similan Islands, Koh Bon, Koh Tachai, Richelieu Rock, Boonsung Wreck on a 5 Days / 4 Nights Liveaboard Trip in Thailand.
Marine life spotted during the trip by Ravi Bhatia: Giant Moray Eel, Common Octopus, Barracuda, Giant Trevally, Clown Anemonefish, Whitetip Reef Shark, Tuna, Banded Sea Krait, Honeycomb Moray Eel.
