- Just completed a two week trip on the Golden Dolphin. Everything was fine. The food was very tasty, and the crew and dive guides the best.
10 day south to north
Varied diving from south to north

- Mantas, Sharks, Great Wall dives
Very good experience - I would recommend this trip!
Overall experience was great, especially the very helpful crew and the dive sides (one thing I would personally change: not to have the Salem Express as a dive side) Very good value for money - I think it is way better to do a 2 week liveaboard than a 1 week!

Excellent
All of it!! Dive sites were fabulous. Very knowledgeable guides, who really know where to look and for what. We got to capture sharks and lucky enough to even capture a rare Mola Mola (sunfish).

Für unsere Situation, viel mehr bekommen als erwartet
Sehr viele, die Art und Weise des ganzen Teams. Die Unterwasser Welt Die Unterstützung der Crew, die Tauchplätze, das Wetter, wohlfühlen ohne Ende. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder. Es war fantastisch 🙏😊

Mehr "Hai"-Lights gehen kaum in 14 Tagen
Hammerhaie, Walhai und Manta bei einem Tauchgang - unglaublich! Auch die Gesamtauswahl der Tauchplätze im Norden und Süden durch die Tauchguides und den Käpten waren sehr gelungen und haben kaum Wünsche offen gelassen. Kein Wunder: Der Käpten geht zum Teil mit zum Tauchen und kennt sich deshalb auch unter Wasser sehr gut aus.
