Thailand Liveaboard Adventure: Explore the Andaman Sea Beyond the Resort

Trade the deck chair for a paddle. Ditch the breakfast buffet for a reefside snorkel. If you’ve ever wanted to explore Thailand in a way that goes deeper than the usual resort stay, this Thailand liveaboard adventure is your invitation to do just that.

Aboard the Thailand Master, a traditional phinisi-style vessel, you'll journey across the stunning Andaman Sea on an immersive eight- or nine-day experience — with kayaking, snorkelling, island hiking, and diving for certified guests. This is Thailand seen from the waterline, not the shoreline.

Why Choose a Thailand Liveaboard Adventure?

Resorts have their comforts — but the real treasures of southern Thailand lie beyond the mainland. On this Thailand liveaboard trip, your accommodation is the experience.

You’ll paddle through the karst islands of Phang Nga Bay, dive or snorkel among vibrant reefs near Koh Phi Phi, and hike lush trails on lesser-known islands between Phuket and Krabi. Each evening, you’ll anchor in calm bays and unwind on deck as the sun dips below the horizon.

No packing. No commuting. No crowds. Just the sea, your crew, and a small group of like-minded travellers.

What You’ll Do

• Kayak tranquil inlets and limestone coastlines
• Snorkel coral gardens teeming with marine life
• Hike to remote viewpoints and nature trails
• Dine on fresh, onboard-cooked meals each day
• Sleep aboard a beautifully restored phinisi ship
• Stay one night in Phuket to ease into the journey

Certified divers can also enjoy guided dives (proof of certification required), while snorkellers and swimmers have plenty to explore from the surface.

Who This Is For

This Thailand liveaboard holiday is ideal if:

• You love the idea of a small group (16 pax max)
• You want a more active alternative to the standard Thailand beach holiday
• You’re seeking comfort without the crowds
• You’ve kayaked before or feel confident on water
• You’re curious to see Thailand’s islands differently

No dive gear or expert skills needed — just a sense of adventure and the desire to see more.

What Makes It Different

• Unlike a resort, the view changes every day
• Unlike big-ship cruises, this is small-scale, low-impact travel
• Unlike tours that rush from place to place, this is slow travel by sea

You’ll explore a side of Thailand that most visitors miss — and come home with more than just photos. You’ll return with memories of paddling through caves, swimming off the back of a boat, and sleeping under stars with the sea gently rocking beneath you.
