Rinse tank on dive deck; small but crowded table on deck. Electrical supply in all rooms and good counter/table space for small room. |

Very good trip for a two-day weekend liveaboard. Amazed by the sheer volume of fish at sites like Hin Muang and Hin Daeng. Huge schools of various small fish teeming over reefs, as well as large schools of bigger fish (including a small school of very large barracuda). Second dive group actually saw a whale shark, though our group did not. Despite having to reroute second day to more "day-trip" sites, still very impressed with the life off-shore of Phuket. Definitely worth a return visit. Very competent and efficient liveaboard crew, guides, etc. |
