Customer Reviews of Liveaboard
Customer ReviewsThe MY Oceanos liveaboard customer reviews listed here have been chosen for you to get a feel for the scuba diving experience you'll get.
Customer Review
“Challenging but brilliant dives. I was traveling alone, but had luckily many English speaking divers onboard. So I met plenty of other divers I could talk with. The food onboard was very good and definitely enough. The first dive was a test dive to check if weights are enough and every diver is able to use the SMB properly. This is mandatory as every buddy team has to set the SMB at the end of every dive. Most dives starts from the Zodiac and also the pick up is mainly from the Zodiacs. As the dive sites are in the ocean current can occur. This makes the dives sometimes challenging, but still great. As I had not the deep diver specialty certification before (dive to 40 m) I did my course onboard. The instructor (also the owner of the board) was a great teacher, as safety was for her most important. I had a great trip and would do the journey again.” Recommended for: Friendly staff, well organized, good food.

“Stunning shark experience. see above Only one thing: I was the only non French Speaking person on board and I don’t speak French. The communication with the other divers was little. Next time I would like to be informed about such a fact.” Recommended for: Longimanus, hammerheads, Napoleon Fish.
