Under the guidance of one of the most experienced cruise directors in Burma, you'll visit sites that no others have dived before. Faah Yai is dedicated only to cruises in the Mergui Archipelago. You can choose to dive the south or north Mergui on regular five or seven day trips. It is the only charter that runs dive safaris specifically to visit the area of the northern archipelago.
With the number of guests limited to only ten or twelve, and double or twin bed cabins with en-suite cabin facilities onboard, Faah Yai is designed for you to enjoy your privacy when you're not underwater.

| Testimonial: |
"I enjoyed the Faah Yai this past January. Our trip was special because I did a 2 week kayaking / snorkelling trip with on the Faah Yai (special charter) just before the diving trip, so we got to snorkel a lot of the pristine little bays tucked in amongst the islands. The coral there was the most amazing thing I've seen, ever. Made the lettuce coral garden at Ulong Channel in Pulau look like a tiny little scrap of nothing. Every kind of coral, beautiful, pristine, and HUGE.
The Faah Yai itself is not a fancy boat but extremely well kept and very comfortable. Waaaay better than our local CA dive boats. Staterooms have A/C, saloon doesn't. The crew is extremely friendly, Sunan's food is superb. I would go on the Faah Yai again if there weren't so many other great destinations waiting.
I didn't really have any preconceptions (about diving in Burma). I thought it was great, and that's right after a trip to Yap and Pulau the year before." - Tax Geek, USA ... |
