The Phinisi Myanmar Offers A Fantastic Trip To Uncrowded Dive Sites

Back for 2025!

The Phinisi cuts an impressive figure. A wonderful, traditional Indonesian style yacht that gets you to the isolated Mergui Archipelago in Myanmar. Myanmar is a fantastic place to dive, visiting the wonderful dive sites is enhanced by joining a liveaboard safari with The Phinisi.

Sitting firmly in the luxury category, The Phinisi has very comfortable cabins and diving facilities. The crew are highly experienced and attentive to your every need. 10 days on most boats will feel a little too long but we’re sure it will be difficult to disembark this boat at the end of your Myanmar adventure.

The Cabins

18 very lucky guests are comfortably accommodated in a range of cabins to suit different budgets. Two Quad cabins, two twin cabins and 3 cabins that can be used as either twin or double bed configuration. Every cabin has en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning, towels, storage space, overhead reading lights and a safe.

The Rest

There’s plenty of space in the social areas; a large air conditioned saloon has a TV and a library of books, movies and games. The sundeck is spacious and the perfect place to watch the Similan Island sunsets from your cushioned sun lounger.

The shaded diving deck has generous individual set up areas which include a personal storage area. Diving is done from a tender inline with the new Similan Island National Park rules. Rental equipment is high quality Aqualung, SMB are offered free of charge and nitrox is available to rent (recommended).

Excellent and plentiful food is served buffet style and eaten either in the shaded dining area or inside the comfortable saloon. You certainly won’t go hungry but neither will you lose any weight on the trip…

Sails Up On The Junk Liveaboard In Thailand

The Junk

The June Hong Chian Lee is the most unmistakable Thailand liveaboard.

Phuket News July 2022

The big Phuket news for July 2022 is the legalisation of cannabis. Laws are somewhat smokey but at the moment it's a free for all. Weed shops are popping up everywhere at such a rate they may takeover 7-11. A clarification of the law will come soon but at the moment you can spark up a fat one without the fear of being arrested as long as your not in a public space. Our dive boat is unfortunately a public space so smoking weed is not allow [...]

What Is The Best Dive Site In The Similan Islands?

The Similan and Surin Islands offer many great dive sites and we're fortunate to have dived at a vast majority of them. The best dive site in the Similan Islands is obviously very subjective but below is our top five and why. The liveaboard route around the Similan Island National Park will also include a fair percentage of dives inside the Surin Islands National Park so we have to include them. So called because it's the furthest nort [...]
