Liveaboard News: The new White Manta started Thailand trips in November 2011 and is already our best seller for this season. The Diva Andaman is also new on our website - the most luxurious liveaboard in these waters. The Black Manta, Mermaid 2 and Mermaid 1 all relocated to Indonesia in 2011 and we have full details already on our Indonesia liveaboards section. Deep Andaman Queen has returned to Thailand and will start cruises again in November 2012.

Most Similan Islands liveaboard boats are also available for Full Boat Charters. If you have a group of divers, or a dive club why not book the whole boat? This gives you more freedom to choose dive sites and times, and more flexibility to plan your own itinerary. Charter rates normally include free places for group leaders. Ask us for more information if you have a group.

If you are planning a dive trip to Thailand in the near future we suggest you bookmark this page for easy future reference. Sunrise Divers is the place to look for a liveaboard! We wish you happy travels to Thailand, the Land of Smiles!
