Time of my life, I will be returning. Thank you Cpt. Chris!!

The crew were phenomenal at their jobs above and below the water (Annie's smile lights up the room and shes so knowledgeable, Barry is so kind and a great dive instructor, Carson's laugh was contagious, Eli is filled with such positive energy and always willing to help out, Gunnar toiled away tirelessly in the gally making unbelievably delicous food every day, and Cpt. Chris is a salty dog with a heart of gold who made us all feel at ease). All of the crew were very approachable and they all tell great stories, the food was spectacular (thank you Gunnar), the music was on point setting the mood at every time of day, the epic dive sites were well chosen and incredibly fun and easy to dive, the accommodation are close to what you'd expect from a hostle but way better (bunk beds, small/medium size shared dining room/kitchen/lounge inside, open deck for socializing and music and relaxation, delicious rum punch nightly and even a beer tap and wine options), the cleanliness was immaculate and the ship was well maintained. Did I mention that all inside rooms have air conditioning?

Great crew, Great Dive, Great food!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My overall experience was an incredible one. The crew was extremely professional and were very adept at handling a couple "experienced" divers that kept chiming in and trying to question or correct what the crew said and did. The crew is obviously extremely competent with their roles and did an amazing job communicating with each other and with the passengers.

This was a perfect diving vacation for our family of 5!

Hoppy and the crew made our week absolutely amazing! We traveled with a family of 5 (2 parents, 18 year old, 16 year old, and 13 year old). Everyone of us are certified divers, except the 16 year old and she has no interest. But she had a great time snorkeling all week and the crew even went out 1:1 with her to make sure we all had fun. Barry was a great cook and we had heaps of good food all week. He even accommodated one of us being lactose intolerant. The accommodations were not luxurious, but we didn't expect them to be. The beds were sufficient and comfortable and the a/c worked. Bathrooms were fine and the single shower is as advertised. No one took a shower every night and most only had one shower that week.
