Similan Islands Liveaboard diving on M/V VILAI SAMUT from Khao Lak
We will be doing three-day dive safaris to the best dive sites at Similan Islands, Koh bon, Koh Tachai and Richelieu Rock. The trips leave Tap Lamu pier 9pm after giving a boat briefing and having dinner. The next morning you wake up right at the first dive site. We do four dives each of the first two days and two dives on the last day before heading back to Khao Lak. We are back on the last day at 3pm.
The Diving
All divers will be divided into groups of four divers, and each group will have their own dive guide. Groups will be divided mainly depending on diving experience and air consumption. Couples and friend who want to dive together can obviously do so.
The Food
You will get well fed during your days with us. There is a mini breakfast before the first dive, full breakfast after it, then lunch after dive 2, snacks after dive 3, and then dinner after dive 4. We serve mainly European breakfasts, and Thai food for lunch and dinner. All meals are served as a buffet on upper deck. Vegetarian requirements are also catered for. All meals are included in the price. Coffee, tea, hot chocolate, water, snacks, fruits and biscuits are also provided free of charge.
