Pristine and stunningly beautiful, Myanmar’s Mergui archipelago in the Andaman sea (Burma), has over eight hundred tropical islands covering an area of over ten thousand square miles. It had been closed off to the outside world for over fifty years, until late 1996 when we at SEAL were lucky enough to be the first diving company to be granted a license to explore the Mergui Archipelago.

This truly is one of the very few remaining untouched areas on earth and an outstanding location for live-aboard scuba diving holidays and sailing yacht charters.
