Hi everyone,

I’m reselling a Deluxe Oceanfront Cabin for two people on the Deep Andaman Queen liveaboard this December. Posting here in case someone wants to grab a great trip at a reduced price.

My dive buddy recently suffered DCS. They’re recovering well, but won’t be cleared to dive by December — and since we were travelling as a pair, I’m passing on the entire booking.
