Very nice dive sites, nice trip ... fortunately helped by a very nice weather.

St Johns and Abu Fendira => very nice dive sites, not too crowded.

serious safety compromises.

Sharks...

Recommended for
The boat is big with multiple spacious decks. The cabins are decent size. However more than that nothing was proper, broken zodiacs meant that every dive was delayed and a serious overcrowding in the only working zodiac meant our diving equipment were stacked on top of each other as well as lengthy waiting for a pickup at the end of most dives which combined with the fact we were doing site with sharks meant we cant simply wait floating on the surface, on top of that there were more than 12 separate tank o-ring failures including twice underwater. On top of all that crew of the boat were unapologetic or even attempting in any serious way to address the above issues despite daily escalation and failed promises from their side that replacement zodiacs will be procured or borrowed. In summary I wont recommend this operator by any means due to the serious safety related issues we faced.
