Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“An amazing once in a lifetime experience! Couldn't recommend this experience more - everything was great from check in to check out. The crew was so helpful and on top of things - our water bottles were filled and refridgerated after every dive, beds made, with snacks and fresh juice waiting for us. The knowledge of the dive sites was also incredible, we had detailed run downs prior to every dive and the guides knew each site like the back of their hands. The boat was also perfect - we had plenty of shade yet lots of open and fresh air. It rained once and crew instantly put up the tarps so that we stayed dry. I never felt cramped and we had space to spread out during breaks.”
Recommended for: The Crew! They were fantastic.. The amazing dives - beautiful coral reefs and unlimited wildlife. Delicious food and drinks.
