Trip 16 already!? How can it be so? I would like to confirm that time truly does fly by when you are having fun. The beginning of a 6 day Similan liveaboard departed last night from Kura Buri Pier. 14 of our guests currently on board are going full on for the next 5 days. What legends! We are joined by (big breath) Simon, Sally, Eva, Phillipp, Susan, Avanti, Pawel, Michelle, Jeanine, Rob, Fi, Anna, Byron, Anje, Jesper, Erik, Eva, Andrew. For Dive crew we are Sinan, Brett, Deaw, Rob, Tim. Dive master Trainees, Chris and Kelven, and myself, Christa. (Such a lucky girl I am)
The trip was an absolute success, with wonderful weather conditions, great visibility, and a great energy on the boat. It was a really relaxed group, with guests from all corners of the globe. There’s not much more one could need or want.We spent the next couple of days living the dream at sea. Some of us were learning how to dive, some were diving nitrox and some were becoming advanced divers, and the rest were simply enjoying the natural beauty that lies beneath the surface. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their time on the boat, at the beach and underwater. I mean really, how could we not? We spent the first day splashing around the Surin islands, the second at Richilieu Rock, Koh Tachai and Koh Bon, and our final dive at local dive site, Boonsung wreck.
We saw a swordfish jumping at the surface, found some really cool nudis, swam around with some napoleon wrasse, watched trevally and tuna hunt and enjoyed some drift dives. We ate like kings and queens, enjoyed frequent nap times, spent hours looking through fish identification books and filling out our own dive logs. Lots of milo was consumed, plenty of quality sun soaking time, and danced around to some cool beats played from our ipods.
After all said and done, we were a bunch of happy divers. With majority of our guests staying on board for round 2, we can only hope to keep this level of enjoyment at such a high standard. We really are having a wicked ol’ time here, and hope that you are too! Until next time, Let the good times keep on rolling…-Wicked Diving Thailand
