MV Warasin – Functional. Friendly. Focused on Diving.

MV Warasin is a classic fleet of Thai dive boats operated by Warasin Resort in Samaesan, Sattahip. Purpose-built for scuba diving, the fleet is known for its reliability, practicality, and diver-oriented layout. Whether used for dive training, fun diving, or instructor-level programs, Warasin boats are a staple in the eastern Gulf of Thailand.
