Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“The crew is phenomenal, the whales showed up, the reefs were great. This was my first experience on a liveaboard and Mike Ball completely blew me away. The crew is outstanding. The dive operation is a well-oiled machine and is extremely well run. You don't need to worry about safety as they provide SMBs and Nautilus's as well as very good dive/minke briefings. The food was top notch everyday and I never felt disappointed in any meals. If you need anything, the crew will not disappoint. My octo was leaking air on the first day and by the next morning, they had it fixed. I truly fear Mike Ball may have ruined future liveaboards for me as the whole package from the dives to the food to the service was completely impeccable.”
Recommended for: The crew was phenomenal. The minke whales were so curious and playful. The reefs were pristine.
