Greetings,
I am new here on ScubaBoard,
I just made a booking on a liveabord to dive the North Andaman Sea in November 2024. I am looking for information or experience on the vessel MV Jovanna (also called Mandarin Queen 9). It is a relatively new boat which only started operating in late...
There is an amazing variety of marine life literally meters offshore from Kata Beach...the hard coral garden and sandy bottom in Kata Bay hold a myriad of marine life from schools of barracuda to moray eels to deadly stonefish to cute seahorses and everything in-between. In this thread I'll post...

At certain times of the year, Richelieu Rock and other sites in the area are covered in glassfish and juveniles, and there's a lot of non-stop hunting going on (trevallies, scads, queenfish, emperors etc), quite a sight...

Here is my latest video "Diving in Andaman Sea" from our last trip to Thailand and Myanmar in April:
All underwater footage and some above water footage are filmed with Sony A7Rii.
I also used iPhone X for some above water footage, and Mavic Pro for drone footage.
I will greatly appreciate...
This was a Ray of Hope Expedition (March 4 to 12, 2019), led by Dr. Andrea Marshal, Queen of Mantas, and he husband Janneman Conradie.
Please refer to a short video about this trip:
Our group gathering point was Khao Lak, with a nearest airport being at Phuket some 1.5 hr away from Khao Lak...
Here is a link to my short video Happy Women's Day From a Diver!

Best wishes to all women, divers and non-divers.

Hello divers,
Could anyone share their RECENT experience with the Andaman Diva Liveaboard?
I read some mixed reviews about the Diva: from very good to very bad. The most recent review I found was from a fellow who took three trips with the Diva over the years, and he noticed a dramatic...
I was able to come across a few Pharaoh Cuttlefish while I was in Thailand.
I've compiled what I observed into a short video with a few fun facts.
I shot this on a Gopro Hero 4 with Backscatter filters and Sealife Sea Dragon video lights.
I was able spend a few days in December diving in the North Andaman Sea. I observed a lot of octopuses in the reefs. I put together a short video highlighting my observations.
Hi, please can anyone recommend a good liveaboard in Thailand (eg Ko Lipe area) for next February? I'm looking for a trip of around a week, and am on a fairly tight budget. I also need flights from the UK, so any advice on packages would also be welcome!
Many thanks in advance.
Have a trip planned to Thailand for October 10th-22nd. I want to spend 3-5 days scuba diving / kayaking / snorkeling. My partner coming with is not certified and I want her to have as plenty of opportunities to enjoy the water as I do scuba diving. What would be the best option given my dates...
