MV Jovanna A New Similan Island Liveaboard
MV Jovanna only started operations in 2023. A brand new custom built liveaboard that has received extremely good feedback so we’ve decided to offer it to our guests for 2024 onwards. Lots of great features make this vessel one of the most diver friendly and comfortable boats in the Andaman Sea.
A maximum of 26 divers in 13 air-conditioned, spacious and comfortable cabins spread over two decks is a generously low number for a vessel of this size. The 8 cabins on the upper deck have huge windows so you can enjoy the views in air-conditioned comfort if the tropical sun is a bit hot for you. The 5 lower deck cabins don’t have windows but are priced much cheaper and represent great value for money.
Each cabin has air-conditioning, ensuite toilet and hot shower, life jackets, beach towels, hand towels, hairdryer, soap and shampoo.
The communal areas on MV Jovanna are packed with great features. The air-conditioned lounge has a large tv and a PS5 along with a library of movies. The upper sun deck has sun loungers, a shaded lounge area and even a jacuzzi! Photographers have the rare luxury of a dedicated camera room.
They’ve done a great job with the tender, it’s extremely diver friendly and very easy for divers to get in and out of the water. A necessary evil after a Similan Island rule change a few years back.
All of the usual suspects in the Similan and Surin Islands will be visited by MV Jovanna. Richelieu Rock, Koh Tachai and the clear blue waters around the Similan islands so why not do it in style at a great price.
