    Customer Reviews of Liveaboard

    Customer Reviews The MY Camic liveaboard customer reviews listed here have been chosen for you to get a feel for the scuba diving experience you'll get.
    Customer Review

    MV Camic is a great Similans experience. The dive guides aboard Camic — Dennis and Tik — have been diving the Similans & Surin islands for 20 years, so no guides have more experience or understanding of the dive sites on this route than they do. Dennis ran advanced open water and nitrox courses for some divers on our trip; it’s clear he loves to teach and prioritizes safety. His students seemed to learn a great deal and enjoy working with him. This is a professional and smooth operation. The rental gear is in great condition, the cabins are clean, the food is excellent. Camic has a large top deck with plenty of space to lounge in the shade or in the sun. It caters to only 14 divers so there is none of the crowding or chaos of other Similans options. We had a great trip and I would gladly dive again aboard Camic.” Recommended for: Camic is a comfortable boat, led by experienced & professional guides, and run by capable and courteous crew.

    Customer Review By Taylor L, from: United States scored the MY Camic 9.6 out of 10; Review courtesy of Liveaboard.com, for more reviews and information click here: MY Camic.

We saw huge shoals of baracuda, which were amazing and then then we did three dives on Richelieu rock and saw some incredible marine life and corals.” Recommended for: I enjoyed Richelieu rock and the similian islands, the food was also really good.
