Krishna 1 Liveaboard Review - Expert Guide to Choosing Your Liveaboard

Russell Bowyer here. I've written this Krishna 1 Liveaboard review to help you choose the right liveaboard with confidence. As a qualified diving instructor and Advanced BSAC Diver with 500+ dives worldwide, I've helped countless divers pick their perfect liveaboard - whether it's your first time liveaboard or you're an experienced diver seeking your next adventure.

Read more about Russell's diving experience

My diving experience spans cold-water UK drysuit dives, warm coral reefs in the Caribbean, the Red Sea, the Great Barrier Reef, and South Africa. As a former BSAC Diving Officer, I've led dive training and operations. I've logged every type of dive: decompression stop deep dives, wreck dives, shark dives, night dives, drift dives, and everything in between. This hands-on experience means I know exactly what makes a great liveaboard experience.

Customer review from Liveaboard.com

Best experience on Adaman, we'll be back! Great experience, mainly thanks to Manny, the best guide in Andaman and the crew. We have already done several LBs on Andaman and without hesitation Manny knows each site like the back of his hand. The quality of the briefings, complete but not long. The punctuality in terms of logistics, the adaptation of the diving profiles according to the group's consumption, everything was great! Big plus, the crew is ultra on the lookout to bring the little extras that make you happy, glass of water once equipped before diving, glass of hot tea at the end of the dive (but still on the deck! Which is a great pleasure!).Finally, the boat, although having lived through these years, is in perfect condition, and above all safety is highlighted, with life jackets in each cabin and automatic fire extinguishers in the galley. 2 lifeboats are present in the Sun Deck, and both had a correct service date.”

Recommended for: Manny, the best guide. The crew, always taking care of you. Safety on board.
