“Amazing time in Koh Similan! It's my first liveaboard and it sure exceeded my expectation. The staff was so friendly and helpful. They helped me every step of the way to make my diving experience enjoyable. I would say Thai food was 7 out of 10. You can bring your own alcohol onboard. I wish they offer massages.”

Krishna 2 Liveaboard Review - Expert Guide to Choosing Your Liveaboard

Russell Bowyer here. I've written this Krishna 2 Liveaboard review to help you confidently choose and book the right liveaboard. 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 and diving instructor, I've taught many people to dive and taken a lot of the divers I taught on their first dive. I also used to organise and run dive trips in the UK, with one of my favourites being expeditions to the Farne Islands to dive with the seals. 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, having dived from liveaboards myself and loved it. This is why I came up with the SDE Liveaboard Rating* to help you choose the best liveaboard for you.

For easy navigation to check my SDE Liveaboard Rating scores for the Krishna 2 Liveaboard, use the light blue navigation links (e.g. "Boat Features 7/10"). Each category can score up to 10 points based on its onboard features. I've added these scores together to calculate the overall *Krishna 2 Liveaboard SDE Liveaboard Rating of 58% shown below.

*How SDE Liveaboard Rating works for the Krishna 2 Liveaboard: 58%

The SDE Liveaboard Rating for the Krishna 2 Liveaboard works by taking the six individual SDE Liveaboard Rating scores, with each one being scored out of 10 and then adding them together.

This total is compared to the maximum possible score of 60/60 to turn it into an overall percentage – which for the Krishna 2 Liveaboard is calculated as 35/60 = 58% SDE Liveaboard Rating.

SDE Liveaboard Rating – Underwater Photographer Features for the Krishna 2 Liveaboard

My score of the Krishna 2 Liveaboard is 3/5 on the SDE Underwater Photographer Rating, as it has 3 of the 5 key photographer facilities (see below).

The Krishna 2 Liveaboard offers a separate rinse tank for underwater cameras, which is crucial for protecting expensive camera equipment from scratches and damage. Also a dedicated camera tank avoids any risks that can arise from sharing space with general diving gear, such as regulators, wetsuits, and heavy fins to avoid contamitation from sand, salt, debris and any chemicals.

In addition, it provides dedicated charging stations for cameras, strobes, torches and laptops so your batteries are always topped up and ready for your next dive. What’s more, it has free WiFi internet onboard, which makes it easier to back up RAW files to the cloud and share images with friends and family while you are at sea.

SDE Liveaboard Rating – Technical Diving Features for the Krishna 2 Liveaboard

My score of the Krishna 2 Liveaboard is 3/3 on the SDE Tech Diving Rating, as it has 3 of the 3 key technical diving features (see below).

If you plan to do technical diving, the Krishna 2 Liveaboard supports tech divers, but before you finalise your trip, check the typical dive depths, available gases, and whether stage and decompression cylinders are supported on your chosen itinerary. In addition, If you dive with a rebreather the Krishna 2 Liveaboard provides rebreather support, but it’s worth confirming in advance which rebreathers are supported and whether oxygen fills, sorb availability, and bailout requirements are onboard, because this can vary by region and itinerary.

If you like to dive sidemount style the Krishna 2 Liveaboard supports sidemount diving, but when you plan your dives check the boat’s cylinder options and the deck set-up, so your configuration is comfortable and properly supported for the dives planned.

Customer review from Liveaboard.com

“Great scuba cruise to end a day earlier. Our start was great! Delicious food with attention to every detail, decorated and organized in a professional and precise way, really kind travel companions even with our children. The only detail we would change is the last day of diving and the last night... Landing off the port in the artificial reef is a waste, we would have preferred to do another day of diving in the Similan Marine Park and not pay to spend a night in port, in fact with the help of the crew we left the Khrisna a day early,”

Recommended for: Diving organizations and guides. Food and boat crew. Rental gear.
