“Diving week in Raja Ampat February 2025. Absolutely amazing week aboard the Blue Manta in Raja Ampat. I loved every minute of this trip. The team leader Evan was the epitome of professionalism and the whole crew were fantastic, they did everything they could at every step of the way to make this trip wonderful. The cabins were clean and very comfortable, the whole boat was incredibly spacious and well maintained, the food was excellent, and the diving was world class. I just cant recommend this highly enough. 10/10 on all fronts!”
Recommended for: The comfort of the vessel. The professional and friendly nature of all the crew and the team leader Evan. The diving itself.
