Exploring The Legend
The Junk, known officially as June Hong Chian Lee, has a rich history that dates back to 1962 when she sailed as a cargo ship, ferrying teakwood between Myanmar and Malaysia. In 1997, she underwent a remarkable transformation, evolving into a comfortable liveaboard dive boat without losing her original charm. At 33 meters in length, she beckons adventurers and history enthusiasts alike.
The Junk, along with her sister boat The Phinisi, offers year-round dive liveaboard trips in the Thai Andaman Sea. Explore the wonders of the Similan and Surin Islands or dive into the depths of Southern Phuket, including iconic spots like Koh Phi Phi, King Cruiser, Hin Muang, and Hin Daeng. Our experienced dive guides will introduce you to each site’s marine creatures before your descent.
Diving from The Junk is a breeze. Our dinghies ensure you’re dropped at the precise spot on the dive site, and our dinghy drivers stay on-site to provide surface support. Your safety and enjoyment are our top priorities.
