Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“Epic Komodo national park diving. If you are looking for a no frills live aboard but with all of the important stuff like dive master , sites to dive and great and knowledgeable crew then this might be the boat for you. We were lucky and out of a possible 8 people , only two of us made the journey ..: and it was just perfect. The liveaboard continued with no changes, just a lot more flexibility and even more close attention to our needs (7 crew to 2 of us). We did everything we needed, we saw all of the animals that we came for (mantas,sharks,turtles, frog fish, nudibranches etc etc it was fab. Also food was better than expected with lots of local and fresh food.”
Recommended for: Great dive master and crew. Choice of activities. Relaxed environment.
