MV Nemo 1 is a brand-new boat, launched in October 2017. Nemo 1 offers our guests the best of everything. They can enjoy the comfort of a Khao Lak hotel, a quick journey out to the dive sites, then the dive boat is large, stable and comfortable. Nemo guests need to stay in Khao Lak (not Phuket) the night before departure. Nemo 1 is owned and run by an extremely-experienced & professional Swiss team, who know what international divers want from a liveaboard trip. The brand-new boat has a steel-hull and is 26m long. The maximum number of diving guests per night is 20, and they all sleep in air-conditioned cabins. The boat has 4 double-bed and 3 quad-bunk cabins, which also have sea-view windows. Communal areas on the boat include a large covered outdoor dining area, where most guests spend non-diving time and meals are served. There is also an air-conditioned lounge saloon, where courses can be taught, and guests can chill out. The lounge has audio-video entertainment and sea-view windows. However, divers who come to Thailand and go diving at the best dive sites normally want to enjoy the views, sea breeze, sub-tropical weather and star-filled night skies. The diving platform is large and low, so that everyone has space to move around safely and comfortably. As usual, there is a sundeck on the top of the boat for sunbathing.
For ultimate flexibility and convenience, and at competitive prices, there is very little to beat MV Nemo 1 for diving at The Similan Islands, Koh Tachai & Koh Bon. While most other Similan liveaboard trips are a fixed schedule, on Nemo 1 you can choose when and for how long you join. This is made possible by the ship staying out at sea, like a ‘floating hotel’ and guests are taken out on any morning of the week, then return to Khao Lak after 2D/1N, 3D/2N or as long as they like.
Nemo 1 does not stay in one place all the time. In fact, on most days, there are 4 different dive sites visited. Depending on the day of the week, Nemo 1 cruises around the northern half of the Similan Islands, Koh Bon or Koh Tachai. On Mondays the boat is at Koh Bon, often the best place in Thailand to see Manta Rays. Tuesdays is for Koh Tachai, again a popular spot for Manta Rays and sometimes something even bigger. The rest of the week is spent at the best dive sites of the Similans.
There are meals served buffet-style throughout the day. These are mainly a mix of Western and local cuisine, but not too spicy. Soft drinks and beer are available at very reasonable rates, and there are always fruits, snacks, tea, coffee & drinking water available for free.
Possibly the two best dives of each day are the first and last. With so few divers sleeping on board, the groups are normally small and personal for dive #1 at 7.00am before the daytrip speedboats fill up dive sites. And after the speedboats have left, the sunset dive is guaranteed to be great, and is followed by an evening meal and maybe a few drinks while enjoying the tranquility and mosquito-free sea breeze.
Overnight divers on Nemo are required to dive with a computer. If you don't have your own the dive centre will supply one free of charge. The rental fee is normally 300 THB / day. But as a special offer we can supply them for free.
Also, Nemo guests need to stay in Khao Lak (not Phuket) the night before departure because Phuket is too far away to arrive in time for a morning departure.
MV Nemo 1 is a great boat on which to take part in a diving course. The Advanced Open Water (AOW) course is by far the most popular, as it allows you to become fully immersed in the divers’ environment. It involves very little theory, but lots of great diving. Nitrox & Adventure Deep are other courses which are popular on Similan liveaboard trips.

Itinerary
MV Nemo 1 Itinerary
Nemo guests are collected from their Khao Lak hotels in the morning* and taken to Tab Lamu Pier. Departure on the speedboat is at 8.00am.
Divers who stay for 2D1N get 6 dives (3 per day). For longer trips, there are 3 dives on the first and final days, and 4 dives on all other days.
To be fair to all other guests joining Nemo trips, the driver cannot wait for guests who are late for their pickup. The dive centre owners pride themselves on punctuality & professionalism. They are only able to provide this when guests abide by the pickup times. Guests who are not on time will be considered a ‘no show.’
When selecting from the list of itineraries below, please note the days of he week of your planned trip. Then you can view the dive sites that the boat expects to visit.
Beach visits are not possible at Koh Bon (no beach) or Koh Tachai (closed to the public). On days at the Similan Islands, beach visits are sometimes possible on most days, but we never promise. This is because so many factors affect the ability and decision whether or not to visit the beach. These factors include the exact location of the boat and its next dive site, how crowded the beach may be, the time of day, and if the the boat needs to be somewhere else to fill up with fresh water.
The itineraries below are the most-common for each trip, but these can sometimes be changed for a number of reasons. Small changes are made due to weather & sea conditions, special marine life sightings, overcrowded dive sites, local-authorities' instructions, and the needs & requests of the paying guests. The safety & comfort of all guests is most important at all times.

Jamie from No Troubles Just Bubbles was amazing. We had lots of questions and worries about booking something so new to us but Jamie answered them all quickly and patiently, keeping in touch with us throughout. He also helped us to book local accomod
ation and onward travel for after our dives.
Our time on board Nemo 1 was fantastic. The whole itinerary ran smoothly, the staff on board couldn't have been more helpful and the food was delicious: easily the best we had whilst in Thailand. We did 6 dives over 2 days and each dive was to a beautiful spot in the Similan islands where we saw so much amazing marine life. Our dive guide was friendly and knowledgeable, making our time underwater worry free. We were all sad when our time was up and wished we'd booked for longer! Thoroughly recommended....read more

For ultimate flexibility and convenience, and at competitive prices, there is very little to beat MV Nemo 1 for diving at The Similan Islands, Koh Tachai & Koh Bon. While most other Similan liveaboard trips are a fixed schedule, on Nemo 1 you can choose when and for how long you join. This is made possible by the ship staying out at sea, like a ‘floating hotel’ and guests are taken out on any morning of the week, then return to Khao Lak after 2D/1N, 3D/2N or as long as they like.
