Customer Review
“Brilliant time! Loved it! This was our first liveaboard experience and it was fantastic. The crew and diving instructors were very friendly and helpful. We felt safe and comfortable in their hands. The food was delicious, we felt very looked after. The diving was incredible…manta rays, turtles and sharks! They made everything so easy and sorted out all the diving gear etc. The lift off the boat made it super easy to get in and out of the boats.
The rooms were comfortable and clean. We did our advanced open water course while we were there and it was great. Met some amazing and interesting people on the boat from all over the world. I would definitely recommend diving with these guys. You get to see so much and dive loads..around 4 a day! We loved it..thank you so much xx.” Recommended for: The people we met, the food, the diving!
