MV Gentle Giant is a 27m wooden liveaboard operated by Smile Dolphin Diving out of Phuket, accommodating 20 divers in 10 fully air-conditioned, ensuite twin-share cabins (1 Master, 1 Deluxe and 8 Standard). Her signature trip is a rare 7-day/6-night Andaman Expedition, offered only six times a year between November and April, covering both the North and South Andaman Sea - including the Similan Islands and Richelieu Rock - in a single journey; shorter 4-5 day South Andaman trips also run regularly. Onboard amenities include a large air-conditioned saloon with a 55-inch TV, a spacious sundeck, Wi-Fi, and a permanent Thai crew. All meals, snacks, soft drinks, tanks, weights and a dedicated divemaster guide are included in the fare.
