A fantastic expedition all over the Andaman Sea (North and South) from Ranong to Phuket, through 5 of Thailand's best Marine National parks...
Our very first North & South Andaman cruise will be an adventure we will remember for a long time… bad weather, waves, changes of itinerary and quite a few unpredictable adventures… but also our first Manta of the season and awesome divers onboard. We made the best of it!
Thank you all for being such fantastic guests!

 Psychedelic batwing slug Waves stopped us from diving Richelieu Rock but disappointment was offset by very beautiful dives in Koh Surin and the Similan islands during which we were able to admire ribbon eel, psychedelic nudibranchs, schools of majestic fish like Sweetlips. A large male green Turtle came to say hello around the boat when we were moored, and dolphins gave us a magical moment while cruising. |  Female Ribbon eel |

In Koh Bon, we had excellent visibility, and the waves gave us enough of a break to run a cool black water dive.

After the long crossing between Similan Islands and Lanta national park, we arrived in Hin Daeng and Hin Muang where some of us had the chance of seeing our first Manta ray of the season. One more manta ID shot for Mantatrust database :)

West of Hin Daeng, we found lots of nudibranchs, ghost pipefish, and spearing mantis shrimp.

We already knew 10 of the 14 guests who joined us for this great adventure, which made the atmosphere nice and warm. What a pleasure to see you all again. 2 guests did the last trip. 6 are doing the next one. And welcome to the 4 new divers joining us for the very first time, we hope you will also come back for more adventures soon...
