The MQ6 is a rather spacious vessel for the 16 guests it welcomes on-board each dive trip. The outdoor dining area is huge, boasting plenty of space to eat comfortably and lounge in this shaded spot during the days. Plus, the view is simply breathtaking from the dining area as well as from the top deck. Indeed, the sundeck features an all-round panoramic view of the Similan Islands and famous Richelieu Rock.
