A week full of fun, adventure and relaxing :-). My safari experience with Star Jet was great. Every aspect of the trip was executed with precision and care, making it an unforgettable journey. The crew's professionalism, friendliness, and dedication to safety were remarkable. They created a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere, ensuring everyone felt at ease and well taken care of. Their calm and attentive approach allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the experience without any stress. The dive sites were expertly chosen, offering a stunning variety of underwater landscapes, wrecks and marine life. The crew’s knowledge and passion for diving was obvious, enhancing the experience even further. The only minor drawback was an inconsiderate and unskilled fellow diver, whose behavior was difficult to handle. However, this was beyond the control of the organizers and did not detract significantly from the overall excellence of the trip. Highly recommended!”

Star Jet Liveaboard Review - Expert Guide to Choosing Your Liveaboard

Russell Bowyer here. I've written this Star Jet Liveaboard review to help you confidently choose and book the right liveaboard. As a qualified diving instructor and Advanced BSAC Diver with 500+ dives worldwide, I've helped countless divers pick their perfect liveaboard - whether it's your first time liveaboard or you're an experienced diver seeking your next adventure.

Read more about Russell's diving experience

My diving experience spans cold-water UK drysuit dives, warm coral reefs in the Caribbean, the Red Sea, the Great Barrier Reef, and South Africa. As a former BSAC Diving Officer and diving instructor, I've taught many people to dive and taken a lot of the divers I taught on their first dive. I also used to organise and run dive trips in the UK, with one of my favourites being expeditions to the Farne Islands to dive with the seals. I've logged every type of dive: decompression stop deep dives, wreck dives, shark dives, night dives, drift dives, and everything in between. This hands-on experience means I know exactly what makes a great liveaboard experience, having dived from liveaboards myself and loved it. This is why I came up with the SDE Liveaboard Rating* to help you choose the best liveaboard for you.

For easy navigation to check my SDE Liveaboard Rating scores for the Star Jet Liveaboard, use the light blue navigation links (e.g. "Boat Features 9/10"). Each category can score up to 10 points based on its onboard features. I've added these scores together to calculate the overall *Star Jet Liveaboard SDE Liveaboard Rating of 68% shown below.

*How SDE Liveaboard Rating works for the Star Jet Liveaboard: 68%

The SDE Liveaboard Rating for the Star Jet Liveaboard works by taking the six individual SDE Liveaboard Rating scores, with each one being scored out of 10 and then adding them together.

This total is compared to the maximum possible score of 60/60 to turn it into an overall percentage – which for the Star Jet Liveaboard is calculated as 41/60 = 68% SDE Liveaboard Rating.

SDE Liveaboard Rating – Underwater Photographer Features for the Star Jet Liveaboard

My score of the Star Jet Liveaboard is 4/5 on the SDE Underwater Photographer Rating, as it has 4 of the 5 key photographer facilities (see below).

The Star Jet Liveaboard has a dedicated camera station close to the dive deck, which lets you gear up quickly, check your housing and swap batteries or memory cards between dives. In addition, it offers a separate rinse tank for underwater cameras, which is crucial for protecting expensive camera equipment from scratches and damage.

Also a dedicated camera tank avoids any risks that can arise from sharing space with general diving gear, such as regulators, wetsuits, and heavy fins to avoid contamitation from sand, salt, debris and any chemicals. What’s more, it provides dedicated charging stations for cameras, strobes, torches and laptops so your batteries are always topped up and ready for your next dive.

You’ll also find it has free WiFi internet onboard, which makes it easier to back up RAW files to the cloud and share images with friends and family while you are at sea.

My score of the Star Jet Liveaboard is 3/3 on the SDE Tech Diving Rating, as it has 3 of the 3 key technical diving features (see below).

If you plan to do technical diving, the Star Jet Liveaboard supports tech divers, but before you finalise your trip, check the typical dive depths, available gases, and whether stage and decompression cylinders are supported on your chosen itinerary.

Customer review from Liveaboard.com

A week full of fun, adventure and relaxing :-). My safari experience with Star Jet was great. Every aspect of the trip was executed with precision and care, making it an unforgettable journey. The crew's professionalism, friendliness, and dedication to safety were remarkable. They created a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere, ensuring everyone felt at ease and well taken care of. Their calm and attentive approach allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the experience without any stress. The dive sites were expertly chosen, offering a stunning variety of underwater landscapes, wrecks and marine life. The crew’s knowledge and passion for diving was obvious, enhancing the experience even further. The only minor drawback was an inconsiderate and unskilled fellow diver, whose behavior was difficult to handle. However, this was beyond the control of the organizers and did not detract significantly from the overall excellence of the trip. Highly recommended!”

Recommended for: Good Choice and Arrangement of dive sites. Professional and warm crew. Spacious Cabins and familiar atmosphere.
