7d/8n and 10 day/11 night Mergui Archipelago Sample Itinerary
Due to the diversity of dive sites & the large area covered by the Mergui Archipelago (Burma) it would not be sensible (or honest !) to give precise itineraries.
Therefore we give you a listing of sites within the area covered by each cruise (see above), which is the same approach we do have for the Similan Island trips. This allows us to offer you the best sites for your particular holiday.

0930 Breakfast
