MV Manta Queen 6

At 22 meters in length, Manta Queen 6 is medium size and has an excellent service & safety record. Many guests enjoy and recommend diving safaris on this popular boat. Manta Queen 6 is ideal for pairs of travellers and those on their own. There are far fewer people (16) aboard this liveaboard boat than most others which sail to the Similan Islands & Richelieu Rock, thus ensuring more friendly and enjoyable trips. Lots of our divers choose to complete a PADI diving course on liveaboard cruises, and Manta Queen 6 is no exception. The 4-day & 4-night liveaboard cruises offer lucky guests the opportunity to visit all of the best diving sites in the area, including Richelieu Rock and some wreck dives. Unlike her competitors in the market, cruises include 15 dives compared to the more common 14. This is made up of three day dives and a night or sunset dive for the first thre diving days, then three day dives on the day of sailing back to Khao Lak.

Manta Queen 6 is a great vessel for diving at the Similan Islands in Thailand. She finds a good balance between size (comfort & stability) and keeping things more personal & friendly. She offers her passengers the chance to socialize in small groups as well as hide away from others and relax. There are eight twin-bed cabins. The wood-lined cabins are clean and cozy, with air-conditioning and en suite European bathrooms. However, it is worth noting that two cabins share each bathroom. This is easily done by the bathrooms having two doors, one for each cabin. Access is direct, making them 'en suite.' There are other bathrooms on the boat, too. Thai and Western cuisine is served several times throughout each day and evening, with inexpensive beer available to buy after the final dive.

Like all of the Manta Queen fleet, Manta Queen 6 offers incredibly good-value cruises. In addition, the prices include all meals, tea & coffee, fruit & snacks, drinking water and even pick up and drop off from local hotels & resorts. However, regardless of the price, diving aboard Manta Queen 6 is still a safe & comfortable experience. The staff are qualified, well trained and service minded. The equipment is all in excellent working order and nothing is left to chance.
