Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“Nice crew, beautiful marine life, good food. I did the 8days/7nights trip and it was absolutely amazing. I really enjoyed my time on the boat and can highly recommend it. Diving: The dive sites are really beautiful - lots of classic fish, nice corals and also the chance to see dolphins, turtles, eagle rays etc. We had shallow dives which was like diving in an aquarium but deep dives to some wrecks and little caves too. My highlight were the night dives because there was so many action underwater. Food: The food was amazing. Very variety and lots of salads and vegetarian options. It was delicious. Crew: Everyone on the boat was very kind, funny and helpful. I felt comfortable all the time. Especially our two guides Mostafa and Masin did a great job - they are really good divers and very sympathetic persons. Enjoyed diving with them a lot. Boat: Everything was clean and there are enough possibilities to just relax between the dives, watch sunset/sunrise and have a good time with the other guest.”
