Thailand Aggressor

Aggressor Fleet's Liveaboard

We are extremely excited about our new addition to the Aggressor Fleet, the Thailand Aggressor. This 16 passenger, 115-foot steel monohull yacht will operate out of Phuket and will include 7 and 14 night itineraries to the Northern Andaman Sea and Southern Andaman Sea.

Phuket, Thailand is often referred to as the "Pearl of the South" and for scuba divers it's the crown jewel of the Andaman Sea. This island paradise lies only 8 degrees north of the equator and enjoys a tropical climate year round. For divers, the true treasures of the Andaman Sea are found at famous sites such as the Similan Islands, Phi Phi Islands, Richelieu Rock, Hin Daeng, Koh Raja and Shark Point, where the warm, clear water draws large schools of tropical fish, manta rays, and the awe-inspiring whale shark. The wealth of aquatic life will delight underwater photographers and marine naturalists when scuba diving Thailand.
