Amazing Diving

Overall, we had an amazing trip. This was primarily due to our incredible dive master Kiki and the attention she gave not only is, but the rest of the divers as well. Her breifings were on point and she helped point out some amazing aquatic life. The food was amazing and had lots of variety. There was no chance of going hungry either! The remaing crew were friendly, helpful and overall pleasant to be around. I read when booking that the boat is "backpacker" accomedations, and i cant agree more. The mattresses were very firm, and we were only provided a sheet. If running the AC we tended to be cold at night with out a blanket. We asked for a blanket, and were given a small thin thing to use. The showers worked intermitantly and in order to power the boat at night, they needed to run a generator. Overall, it was still an incredible trip, but youll need to be okay with a few discomforts.

Relaxed 5 days!

Spectacular shark dive in shallow water and a great wreck dive in a National Park with more schooling fish than I have ever seen! This boat, as advertised, is definitely not for die-hard scuba divers or underwater photographers. There is no camera room. I had to teach them where to put the camera rinse tank. There is no proper dive platform at the stern. Still, it was easy to do 2 or 3 dives/day without rush or hassle. All the tanks are stored in the front of the boat and you have to walk down a narrow (only one person can pass) aisle to the mid-section of the boat and jump off. Must climb up the ladder to get back in. We didn't use the dinghy for diving at all! They did help with my gear, though. Very accommodating but awkward set up. Food was OK. Always a grilled fish,stir fry, and something else. Cook and server very helpful and responsive to suggestions. Alcohol freely available but very limited selection. Free massage! I had one during the 5 days. Weather is dicey. One really rough day and everything went flying! When it rains you must close your doors to your cabin or get soaked. The cushions in the stern were wet the entire cruise, which made sitting down for dinner or relaxing uncomfortable. Seems like it rained a little every day. Some fun shore stops and a chance to get off the boat. This is a single hull, 75 foot wooden vessel, not a 150 steel vessel like you might get with a more serious dive operation. We had one brief storm with a fair amount of seasickness all the way around. Think Gilligan's Island! This is a fun adventure for 5 days with a great, affable crew and simple but sufficient amenities (one set of towels for the week, for example). Captain really knew what he was doing and took great care with the boat. Had fun and had a half dozen dives, 2 of which were great! Of course, you are subject to whomever else signs up on the boat and it's pretty close quarters if you are an introvert. Would definitely NOT go if you or your mate are "high maintenance". Think "camping," not the Ritz!

Great value, informal, definitely a "chill" cruise

Trip of a lifetime!

Definitely the trip of a lifetime! Not only was the crew the best and extremely friendly we also made life long friends. The diving was one of a kind, couldn’t recommend more and hope to come back again!
