Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“5 days on The Junk was amazing. My only regret is I didnt book a longer trip. Ive been on several liveaboards and this was by far the best. The vessel was amazing and the accommodation was top notch. In over 300 dives Ive never seen more fish than I saw on this trip. The attention to detail was supurb. From the fruit being cut into carvings, tasty drinks being served after every dive it all adds up. We got nitrox and every tank filled between our 5 people was within 0.2 of 32% every fill. Every time. Im already planning the next one. You cannot go wrong booking the Junk.”
