About Orca Oktavia

In Thailand’s Andaman Sea, the Orca Oktavia runs relaxed dive cruises to the Similan Islands, Koh Lanta, and Koh Lipe. Built in 2003 and measuring 30 metres, she carries up to 20 guests across nine en-suite cabins, cruising at a steady 8 knots so the days feel unhurried rather than rushed from site to site.

Where she dives

The routes take in some of the region’s most celebrated diving: Richelieu Rock, Koh Bon, Koh Tachai and the Surin Islands, along with Hin Daeng, Hin Muang and Phi Phi. It’s a spread that suits divers chasing both dramatic pinnacles and easy reef time.

On board, comfort is taken seriously. Air-conditioned, sea-view cabins come with warm-water showers, and there’s fine dining, an indoor saloon and a sun deck to unwind between dives. Nice extras seal it: more than 1,000 movies to watch from your cabin, and a massage chair in the Deluxe King Cabin.
