Customer Review
”A truly memorable experience with friendly staff, excellent food and the most amazing diving. We picked this trip as we had never seen an oceanic manta, they did not disappoint. In addition we saw dolphins up close underwater and numerous species of shark not seen before plus, on one dive, several amazing encounters with a whale shark. The organisation by the crew to ensure we had the best experience whilst on the boat was truly exceptional, nothing seemed too much trouble. Although the diving was intense, when out of the water we were able to relax and felt cared for by all the staff. Such a good trip with great memories to look back on, until the next time…” Recommended for: The people, crew and divers. The boat, comfortable and relaxing. The diving, incredible!
