MV Philkade


steel mono-hull motor boat...
Price  Standardised price indication based on daily rates, to allow easy comparison between products
Customer Rating  Star rating, based on our customers feedback

Philkade is a modern, five star motor vessel specifically designed for long-range luxury cruising in the Similans and Burma. The five night Similan safari is particularly good, as this gives you one extra day and five extra dives to soak up the Similan Islands sights and atmosphere. The most common complaint from divers that visit here on a standard four night trip is that they wished they'd have stayed for longer!

Length: 29 metres / 96 foot
Beam: 8 metres / 26 foot
Cruise: 10 knots
Divers: 13
Enriched air nitrox is available here

The cabins are simply superb, especially the Deluxe cabin which has panoramic seaviews across the whole bow - a fantastic sight when you pull back the curtains on another glorious, sunny morning on the Andaman Sea. The cabin is so large it even has plenty of space to have its own sofa. The cabin also features TV and DVD player entertainment for your surface interval relaxation, a King-size bed, intercom system, personal safe for your valuables and complimentary flowers. The Deluxe cabin and Superior cabins also have their own private bathrooms, complete with toilet and hot water shower. All the cabins are air-conditioned with individual cabin control; all are spacious, well-appointed and made up daily.

The huge indoor air-conditioned saloon is one of the boat's main features. Finished in teakwood, leather and granite, the huge lounge gives Philkade the feel of a Super Yacht. You can show off your latest photos or videos on the home theatre system. The sundeck and dive deck areas are equally expansive, and with its novel flybridge, there's oceans of space for your comfort.

With a maximum of only 13 guests on board and 12 staff, you can be assured of attentive service. With four divemasters and two dinghies on board, you will never have to dive in a crowd, or start getting cold, waiting in the water to be picked up after your dive.

Significantly, MV Philkade was built to the Lloyds safety standards (SOLAS) so your safety is assured when you're all at sea. This diving charter hits the mark for a cruise to remember in Thailand.. Nitrox fills are available for enriched air certified divers.
