Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“World class diving, top-flight service from a highly professional crew, and all the radioactive coconuts you could ever want. This was an extraordinarily well run and organized trip. Given the remote nature of the sites the crew takes all care to make sure that guest comfort and safety are top priorities. The diving was absolutely stunning with the option for guided or self-directed exploration on all sites, and guided wreck penetration on the headlining wrecks. Briefings were thorough and provided great context to enjoy historical significance of each wreck; movie nights complemented this history and background building. The midweek deco break offered an opportunity to land on the island and explore the abandoned facilities and enjoy beach dinner.”
Recommended for: Truly spectacular diving with informative briefs. Fantastic service from the whole crew both in and out of the water. Comfortable cabins.
