Nautica Liveaboard

MV Nautica specialises in providing excellent service and comfort to small groups of divers. She normally takes just 12 divers but can take 2 extra for group charters. The owner of Nautica is personally on board for most trips to ensure the highest levels of service.

The interior is stylish with lots of warm teak. The spacious communal dining area is great for relaxing and socialising and there is plenty of room to sunbathe. Built in 2005, Nautica is IMO certified with all safety equipment on board.

Nautica is also licensed to dive Burma's Mergui Archipelago and takes groups of divers for full charters on request.

In 2013 Nautica plans 3 new trips to the Andaman Islands. You can down load a pdf of the itinerary here.
