Could not have had a better experience for my first liveaboard experience
Everything about the Discovery II was terrific. The cabins were clean and comfortable, boat was spacious with plenty of room to relax in post-dives, crew was AMAZING and extremely helpful, gear was in perfect shape, food was varied and delicious, and so much more. I highly recommend it.

Unforgettable Dive Safari
Everything was a highlight to us! It was our first liveaboard dive safari! It was well organized, well fed, friendly and attentive staff! The Samirah is a must for anyone looking for an unforgettable experience!

Wonderful crew but very budget operation!
Dive guides were excellent and crew members were friendly but overall this was an extremely budget operations with many corners cut compared to previous live aboard experiences. Cabins are very basic and zodiac operation was not safe.

Exceptional diving with an outstanding and attentive crew.
The crew made the best of every opportunity. At one dive site there was a large pod of dolphins nearby. As we surfaced from our dive, the crew picked us up in the zodiacs and we followed the Dolphins throughout the area. It was an unplanned adventure that we all enjoyed thoroughly. The diving was breathtaking - fish in abundance and reefs that were extraordinary.

Okey Boat, but it needs a serious upgrade.
The boat do have a nice size but the cabins really need an upgrade and the beds are really bad and hard. The Aircon on the double room we where in, couldn't cool down the room. So it was really hot at night in our cabin. The food was Okey, but not more than that. The diving area on the boat is great, so no complain there. It was a good tour and some good dives, but all in all, it will not be at boat I personally will go on again.
