About Manta Queen 8
The Manta Queen 8 sails Thailand's Andaman Sea, departing from Phuket to explore the storied dive sites of the South Andaman. Purpose-built for diving, this 28-metre liveaboard carries up to 24 guests across 10 air-conditioned en-suite cabins, with itineraries packing in up to 17 dives — night dives included.
Diving the Andaman
The route threads together some of Thailand's most celebrated waters: the Similan Islands, Koh Bon, Koh Tachai, the Surin Islands and the legendary Richelieu Rock. With four dives per day and dive groups kept to a maximum of five divers, there's plenty of unhurried water time to soak it all in. Nitrox is available on board, and a shaded dive deck with separate camera rinse keeps things comfortable between descents.
Topside, comfort is well looked after. Expect freshly cooked buffet-style meals, seaview and air-conditioned cabins, warm-water showers, a cool indoor saloon and a sun deck for surface intervals. Charging stations, daily housekeeping and free internet round out life aboard.
